An Unwanted Goodbye

I sit here thinking about that day you said goodbye,
And how I just never wanted it. I didn't want to believe
That the one I love and gave so many of my days to,
Just went up and left me with a goodbye.

I sat there when you were at your worst and you just yelled
And complained. I would sit there and cry even though
I had so many words to say. I don't take stuff people
Often, but when I do people know that person can't
Be just anybody but someone special.

Then the next day I would tell you everything I thought
Of saying that day, but in a careful thought out way. That
Then if you listened and had anything to say in a half hour,
We would be happy again.

We talked about everything just to be happy and to be us.
Nothing would really bother once everything was out. Then
It came to that day and you told me you loved me. And on
The phone all I heard was "I love you Melissa, I really do."

I believed you and then I realized I loved you too. We were
So happy and relieved that these feelings were finally out. It
Was a long time without a fight until it came out and you
Said that UNWANTED GOODBYE.
