I love you,
don't you know its true?
But now you're leaving,
and my heart is unweaving
I understand you have to go
This is what you must do, I know.

But don't make me say goodbye
I cannot bear to say goodbye
It makes it hurt to cry
I just can't say goodbye.

You call this a burden
One so painful to bear
But can't you see I'm hurting
beneath this smile I wear

You go to do your deed
To live on and be free
But I will age here slow
only to die alone
It's my greatest fear
but I will die without you here

But don't make me say goodbye
I canot bear to say goodbye
It makes it hurt to cry
I just can't say goodbye

Now he's gone
And his heart will live on.
But mine is stuck here
drained through my tears
He'll forget about me
and that will shackle me

to this night

But don't make me say goodbye
I can't bear to say goodbye
It makes it hurt to cry
I just can't say goodbye

goodbye
goodbye
good-

Oh, Brigid...

This is so very, very sad. I try never to say goodbyes as they hurt too much...even when they are not permanent. But...I've been accused of living in a fantasy land on more than one occasion!  Nice write...thank you for sharing...you are in my heart.

Love and Light...jc

(big angel hugs) Oh Brigid, my heart sends many hugs your way, sweet friend, I believe goodbye is the saddest word in the dictionary and should never have to be spoken, know we are all feeling for you, I wish for true happiness to fill your heart, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Brigid, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

This is one hell of a poem. It sums up how I often feel.
