I Just Wanted To Say Goodbye

by TheDevilHimself   Nov 4, 2005


Just wanted to say goodbye

The autumn colored leaves softly rustle under my feet
In the middle of the night as I walk down the street
I cross a lake that reflects the light of the lanterns
Waving up and down like an ancient torch that burns

I continue my walk through a nearby forest
More leaves rustle under my cold penetrated feet
I felt the north wind moving around my chest
It made the trees whisper making me depressed

Sometimes I saw the moon appearing above the trees
Sadly reflects the sunlight in the land like it has no choice
Suddenly the dominating silence broke of a noise
It was the screech of an owl sitting on a nearby branch

His eyes were clearly mirroring my appearance
He was staring at me like he gave me clearance
I carefully walk on the tips of my toe to pass by
While the thunderclouds slowly cover the sky

I feel the first drips falling down on my eyelashes
I Cant see a thing, not even when the thunder flashes
As the rain keeps falling down drip by drip
I started running when the first drop reached my lip

When I reached my destination the rain slowly fades away
Here I was at the middle of the graveyard surrounded by mist
I sadly walk to wards a grave and say "I always pray
To god my love, that you will come back to me and stay"

"I came here to tell you that I love you and I think about you"
I grasp the rose that I carried with me the whole time
And I lay down the rose on her grave as I talk to her
"You might be gone in the world but in my heart you're still mine"

"I just wanted to say goodbye to you my love
And hope that you are watching me now from above"
I stand up and turn around when the thunder strikes
Through the dark misty grave yard and leaves me motionless behind

    Wow, Rik, the imagery is great! Your description was beautiful! It's very sad, though, but really good! Keep up the great work, Rik! My favorite part is:

    "You might be gone in the world but in my heart you're still mine"

    anway, Keep writing!
