It's Time To Say Goodbye

by PassingAngel   Oct 8, 2007


So here we go
It's about time I get this out
I can't hold onto you anymore
Let me explain what this is about

It's been almost a year now
And nothing has changed
But this pain is something that I won't allow
It's time our hearts, we exchange

Cause I can't keep yours anymore
And I need mine back
Even though we needed it before
I think it's time we switchback

It still hurts as much as it did
That's why I should let it go
This is something we have to rid
Before the sadness kills us both

It just doesn't feel the same way it used to
It just doesn't feel as strong
It doesn't feel as good as it used to
These feelings just don't belong

I can't keep sitting here wondering
What if, one day, someday
I can't let my heart continue breaking
Pretending to be okay

I can't wait for you any longer
So don't wait up for me
We have to accept that it's over
And set ourselves free

I still think of it from time to time
I still miss you some days
Even though you have to leave my mind
I'll keep you in my heart always

So it's time we say these words
These words so sad but true
Take a step and move forward
So Goodbye, Goodbye to you.

    These words were most profound to me and especially the last line touched me deeply. Indeed we can destry each other, when we refuse to let go of a bad relationship!

    Good write, I am glad I stumbled upon it:)

    Take care,

    5/5 Ingrid

    I like this poem a lot. It speaks from the heart. It's very very good. But I do suggest you concentrate more on the flow. Some lines have more syllables than others and I think as poets, that's what most of us struggle with, is making it say what we want, but within a certain structure. But overall, this poem is very good. I enjoyed your 3rd 4th and 5th stanzas alot. Good job!
