// Goodbye //
'Goodbye' was the title of my worst haunting nightmare,
How could I let go of something dear, on which I poured all my love and care?
I held my grip so tight, until my arms gave way, but not my heart,
I ran to all the enlightened souls asking for a solution to outsmart,
The time, my enemy, the wild prancer,
For letting go was never the right answer.
But time wouldn't stop, oh no it wouldn't.
It took away one piece at a time, grinning cruelly at my helplessness,
I sat there for days, waiting to hear from it, and take away my loneliness,
It never came, but something new caught my attention,
As I started walking up to it, filled with apprehension,
It slowly dawned to me, that 'forever' was hard to come by,
It was finally time to bid the tears goodbye.
