The Day I Said Goodbye

by Brittany   Jun 13, 2006


The day we first met,
I admit this is true,
I never would have thought,
I'd fall this in love with you.

I wished on a star,
We went on a date,
Life, it was perfect,
Life, it was great.

We had our first kiss,
We talked on the phone,
With you by my side,
I was never alone.

My friends didn't like you,
They never could see,
They just didn't know,
How much you meant to me.

But I am the fool,
For believing my friend,
For bringing our love,
To such a quick end.

The day finally came,
I told you Goodbye.
I thought I'd feel better,
But that was a lie.

The friends I'd believed in,
Are no longer there.
When I reach out to you,
I'm reaching for air.

You got over me,
But I want you to know,
I'm still not over you,
Or letting you go.

I'll never forgive myself,
For what I did to you,
And if it's any consternation,
My heart was broken too.

You taught me a valuable lesson,
You taught me to follow my heart.
I wish I'd learned it sooner,
So we wouldn't be apart.

I wanted to say I'm sorry,
I'm broken deep inside.
I'll never forget that tragic day,
The day I said goodbye.

    Very well written and I thought it was nicely expressed. The first half of the poem to me felt like it flowed much better and came from deep inside of your heart... the last half seemed to me like you were struggling to get it out. Either way... I think it was great 5/5 - keep it up girl
