Good bye...

My heart started to cry...
It's been crying a long time now
Saying good bye
Seems like tears are the norm...
And I want to stop but I don't know how
Everyday I think of you
And all the things we used to do...
Wondering if you were a dream come true
But now it feels like I scarcely know you
The signs foretell
What my body and soul knows well
You've gone and left me
Maybe not physically
But
Certainly mentally...
I yearn for you and ache in places I never knew
But know that I will never tell you
I feel like running and shouting,
Screaming and jumping
Throwing a tantrum or two
But.... No,
That will never do
So much to say, So much to do
I dreamt of doing it all with you
But now I am awake,
I dream no more
And the visions evaporate
As I watch you leave through that door...
So I will grit my teeth,
Wear my brightest smile
Even though I want to die
And I will stand and close the door
And open it nevermore.

Diana......we all experience the same type of event, but it is a poet who transfers the emotions and feelings to text, without losing the impact of the time.
The reader experiences your pain and joy...great write.....Kathyteddybear

The title had me a bit concerned as I naturally tend to assume the worst, but i'm glad to see this was an excellently written poem and not a true departure.wine
