Goodbye’s


Goodbye’s are always the hardest things to say
You just meet someone new and call him or her a friend
Before you know it they have gone away,
And what used to be the beginning has quickly became the end.


Why are these words so hard to say, you ask?
When only you want to see it last
Nobody wants to see all the tears,
You want this friendship to grow year after year.


This weekend is now winding down
Please do me a favor and don’t frown.
We both know we may never see each other again,
But we also know we don’t want this to end.


So I guess I have to say it now
Although it means so much pain and sorrow
When you know everybody will be gone tomorrow
This sad and meaningful word Goodbye!

Wow, I really love this piece. Alot. You put into words what alot of people feel, and you did it well. Very strong poem, I especially love the 3rd stanza.
Thank you for sharing, this is going in my library.

We were meant to live for so much more have we lost ourselves?
Maybe redemption has stories to tell maybe forgiveness is right where you fell.

It's so true how hard goodbyes are, I really liked this because of the amount of feeling you put into it and how true it is, nice write
