SO SOFT, YOUR GOODBYE So soft, your goodbye When I am leaving your arms So sad that I can't stay But time doesn't allow little charms When you are all alone Won't you think of me and sigh And say a prayer for me So soft, your goodbye Darkness clouds my eyes As I climb upon my horse I will ride the dusty plains My soul filled with remorse For I am leaving you today With a tear in my eye Going without a word more So soft, your goodbye When you lay down at night Don't forget my smile Whisper through the starlit sky As I travel another mile My heart aches for you Though I know I won't cry Because I've left here before So soft, your goodbye In my dreams I have seen Brothers in arms climbing the mountainside Playing with you in the fields Hiding my secrets inside As I leave I grow weary Of the hopes I saw go by And I miss you so much So soft, your goodbye When I am old I will Think of you and cry But nonetheless I left you For a better place to lie And when I find my home I will be the first to fly Back to where the sun shines So soft, your goodbye So soft, your cheeks as I kiss The face I knew so well Until I come back my love Won't you ring that bell For as I wander the night becomes nigh And I hear the ancient sigh Of the world as I pass through, thinking of you So soft, your goodbye |

Beautiful poem CJ, I can picture two lover's sweet soft goodbye in my head with every verse. Bravo! ~Kelly ~Kellsue Reflect upon your present blessings-of which every man has many-not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. ~Charles Dickens We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill |

I could see you riding those dusty plains, and feel your pain so deep. This was so painfully beautiful ChristopherJ! Very well done my passions friend! ~Sheri |
