PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

you're leaving and I wave good bye

one lonely tear forms in my eye

it feels akin to facing death

as my body takes a ragged breath,



my hands they tremble with the fear

of knowing you will not be here

and I must walk along alone

without the love I've always known



and still I stand feet firmly planted

we've argued screamed, raved and ranted

and when the silence finally fell

we each knew we each could tell



that our love had forever changed

the cards had all been rearranged

different needs and different dreams

have brought the end of us it seems



and this ache felt in my soul

increases as I must let go

my mind is warring with my heart

but I know we're better off apart



and so I smile and so I wave

and try hard not to look so grave

I wish you well my love my dear

in my eye one lonely tear...
