Final Goodbye Poem by Rebecca Pepper

It really hurt you know
Every time you would go
It's getting harder to hide
That It's killing me inside

For once you left me alone
I never left that phone
I couldn't even look at others
I didn't even think of lovers

Now you can't come back
And now there's just this huge crack
In my life and my mind
It's like I've become blind

The first time they said
‘He made us proud the life he led'
I knew you were so long gone
And I broke, everything was wrong

Why'd you leave my life?
Why did you fight that strife?
When you knew what they fought for
Why did you fall in that destructive war?

They say I will learn to love again
But there is no escaping this pain
You knew what might happen from the start
The pain I felt when your life was torn apart
So sleep well, this is my final goodbye, my darling sweet heart
