Goodbye, Love..

by Nonna   Nov 24, 2008


The doctors say it's just a matter of time,how come i never knew.
that behind this solid exterior,there's a weaker side of you.

that behind your "take care"and "i will miss you so".
you were silently,letting go.

i ran to your room,held your hand tight.
"don't you dare die" i said,you gotta win this fight.

I'm down on my knees,I'm begging you "please give it a try".
slowly your voice is fading,as a tear fell from my eye.

you caress my cheek,wiping my tears away.
"everything will be just fine",you continuously say.

you handled me a letter,gently squeezing my hand.
asked me to read it,every word,to understand.

the letter was in pink,saturated with the scent you wear.
i started reading,while you looked at me with a stare.

"I DON'T KNOW BABE HOW TO START
SO I WILL TELL YOU EVERYTHING RIGHT FROM MY HEART

YOU ALWAYS WERE ME GUIDE IN MY DARKEST DAYS
I LOVED YOU SO DEARLY IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS

YOU'VE BEEN STUCK TO ME IN MY BETTER DAYS AND WORSE
YOU LEARNED ME HOW TO PUT MY FEELINGS INTO VERSE

YOU'VE BEEN MY INSPIRATION,YOU'VE BEEN MY HOME
I NEVER WANTED BABE,TO LEAVE YOU ALONE

YOU WERE MY DREAM COMES TRUE,YOU WERE MY SUNSHINE WHEN I'M COLD
YOU WERE A PART OF ME,THE ONE WHO I DREAMED TO FOREVER HOLD

I'M SORRY I COULDN'T TELL YOU THAT MY DAYS IN THIS WORLD ARE FEW
EVERY TIME I TRY TO TELL YOU,I COULDN'T DARE TO HURT YOU

BUT I GUESS NOW YOU KNEW THE REASON WHY
EVERY TIME I'M WITH YOU,YOU NOTICE A TEAR HIDDEN IN MY EYE

I WANTED TO MAKE YOU HAPPY AS MUCH AS I CAN
YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY GIRL AND I WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR MAN

I DON'T WANT YOU TO CRY,YOU KNOW I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOUR SMILE
IT USED TO COMFORT ME AND MAKE LIVING WORTHWHILE

JUST PLEASE BABE,I NEED YOU TO KNOW
IF IT WAS UP TO ME I WOULD NEVER LET YOU GO

I LOVE YOU WITH ALL THAT I'M,ALL THAT I WAS AND ALL THAT I WILL EVER BE
PLEASE BABE,LET IT GO,LIVE A HAPPY LIFE AND SET ME FREE"

i looked back at you with tears,running down my cheek.
you used to make me stronger,oh babe,I'm so weak.

i let go of your hand,looked at you with eyes filled with sorrow.
knowing that I'd be alone,for all the coming tomorrows.

i kissed you one last time,whispering, babe,take care of yourself please.
we will meet again soon,i promise..goodbye,love and rest in peace.
