'We Never Got To Say, 'Goodbye' Poem by Linda Winchell

'We Never Got To Say, 'Goodbye'

Rating: 4.8


You went away to catch your plane
One evening dark cloud laden night.
Pouring down cutting sheets of rain
Interfered with its timely scheduled flight.


We never got to say goodbye
I didn't make it there on time.
We had a fight before you left
And with that now that
Is a definite regret of mine.

We never got to say goodbye
Your plane I was told, had fallen from the sky.
Was struck by lightening over the ocean
It killed all loving parts of me
When I heard you died.

We never got to say goodbye
But I'm saying it now to you.
I'm asking for God's forgiveness and yours
I will always be in love with you.

Nicely done, sad...I wonder just how many loves part and never get to say goodby? Worst still to have parted bitterly...T

I don't that it matters if this is a true story. It's a darn good poem. Rhythm is superb. Tom Billsborough
