Goodbye Poem by Vanessa Kingsley

I will reminisce, and continue to cry
It was the right thing though
Saying goodbye
Never got a chance to tell you myself
But it still hurts like hell
I’m not acting ornery
Quite the opposite
The sides on which we fall
Are so majestic
No sense in being dumbfounded by it all
I had already answered the call
Soon I’ll start to get impersonal
Again
I should’ve never felt anything more
My friend
Can I call you that?
Or are the ties completely severed now? [yes]
The profound defiance of my juvenile mind
Will always haunt me till the day I die
When I said stop
It went faster
Now look at this perfect disaster.
I winced as I chocked out the words
Though no one could hear me
I’m still aloof about it
But you can keep explaining
Maybe one day I’ll comprehend
Till then….
I know what you’ll say
I know what you feel
I know what you’re thinking
Yes it’s all real
Resignedly, please sign your name on the dotted line
You now have a purchase of borrowed time
Love is not an elite club
Enter if you choose
But at the end be ready to pay our dues
And take it from me
No beautiful prince will save you’re innocence so gallantly
Say that word
Yes, goodbye, it will hurt inside
But soon the pain will fade away
Someday
Someway
