Finally Saying Goodbye

Contributed by ThePoetofDistress on Friday, 6th January 2006 @ 04:24:56 AM in AEST
Topic: LostLove



I sit alone, the morning is quiet
Softness outside, trouble inside
I can't say goodbye, but I know I have to
When I sleep and wake, I won't feel the pain
I can accept the future, but I won't forget the past
I hate what it's become, I hate these feelings
Friendship is hard to maintain, lost love isn't a bruise
You just haven't been the same

Things fell apart, I don't know how we got here
I tell myself to be strong, but actions don't come from my words
I find you on my mind
You sit there, as beautiful as ever
To call you an angel wouldn't be enough
You are everything to me, but that changes nothing
Your smile, your touch, your love
I can't stop missing you, as much as I've tried

The weather, the weather is cold
Shivers don't erase the pain
Words and phrases of anguish become reality
Late at night, surrounded by darkness
It creeps from outside, enters my body
I'm nothing right now, I can't react
Words come and go
I think of what to say, to get one more chance
But it's worthless, it's over
I should have given up long ago

I'll always be here
Whatever you need
Just let me know, I won't hesitate
But for now I say goodbye
I don't want this pain
I can overcome, I can be okay
I've pushed you away, but you've pushed back
I didn't move, but you've fallen back

The clouds are still, the air just sits
Another night without you
Your company is all I ever asked
Yet you dodged and avoided me
What you think when you look back
I'll never know

Another time to say goodbye
But this time it's the last
You had me and you took me
But decided to let me go
I don't blame you, I don't hate you
I'm madly in love
It's not anger, it's misery
I promise you this

I say goodbye, and tell myself
Tomorrow will be different
Yet I don't sleep
I don't want it to be different
These feelings won't leave, they can barely be hidden
I'm saying goodbye
But I just have to wait
I'm making myself say goodbye
You'll be gone when I wake
So I refuse to sleep
One more hour with these thoughts
You turned my life around
I'm everything because of you
But in everything I've been nothing

Tomorrow will come, and I plan to change
I won't think about you
I won't think of our love
If I can somehow manage to stay true to these words
Please let me say 'I love you' just one last time
I love you so much, I've never had a doubt
It hurts to imagine a relationship that contrasts with my images
Of me and you together, happy, and in love
But I'm saying goodbye, within the hour
I'm saying goodbye, but just not yet

I love you, I love you
It feels good to say
I wish you could hear me
I wish you would try
You were the best thing that ever happened to me
No sentences, no statements
Just messages from my heart
I hope the best, but I must say goodbye
I must say goodbye
But the time isn't right

The morning brings a new day
And a new point of view
A new outlook on life
But I'll still be without you

A new person in your life
But not new at all
It kills me to imagine how much fun you two have
But I'm saying goodbye
It doesn't kill me, it burns
Nothing is here
A dark room sits in the night
A lonely man by himself
Grief and agony fills the room
All alone, all alone

I'll quietly say goodbye, and wish you the best
Thank you for the memories, I can't thank you enough
Thanks for the times you were there
Don't apologize when you weren't
Things are over now, things just don't seem to matter
I won't single out moments, I won't think what could have been
I'll just say goodbye
A man all alone
Saying goodbye
To the woman he loves
