Goodbye Dear Friend

Goodbye dear friend
Until we meet again
Promise to keep you in my heart forever
And cherish all the memories we have shared together

Goodbye dear friend
We may travel in separate ways
I promise forever our friendship will stay
I may find and meet somebody
But the friendship we have will reminds me everyday

Goodbye dear friend
I may be far, far away
But in my mind and in my heart
Forever you will stay

Goodbye dear friend
Until we meet again …..

Outside,it is cold
But thinking of you and I
Warms my very soul

Twenty seven minutes till a brand new year
He’s asleep in that room; I’m in here
It doesn't really matter, we don’t talk any more
There are more walls between us
than this single door
He doesn’t talk to me, won’t share his cares
When I try to talk to him I get annoyed stares
So I’ve given up on trying – it’s easier that way
Tomorrow starts a new year
but another “same ol’ day”
Oh, I know I have it easy compared to many
I have food and a home. Some don’t have any
And I’m not feeling sorry for myself too much
But I’d really love someone to hold and touch
It’s not that I’m lacking anything at all
It’s just that it gets lonely this side of the wall
So in twenty seven minutes
I’ll start another year
With him asleep in there and me right here.

Distance.
Eight letters that stretch
the fifty miles
to you
and back.
I'll run.

A hundred texts,
a dozen phone calls,
a cluster of shared laughs,
can never replace
a welcome-home hug.
I'll run.

I dream about that day.
I'll see your smile
a hundred feet in front of me.
Time doesn't slow,
but speeds up until
we embrace.
I'll run.

Distance can eat the heart.
Leave lies in the soul.
Force us apart.
When that day comes...
I'll run.

I pushed so hard to get an answer
the truth was that

nothing you could say would make me free
nothing you could say would change a thing.
Nothing you could say would make it alright

that I wanted you when you didn't want me.

I am loveblind, my life, to you.
Swerving into a one-track mind
stymied by broken hearts askew,
I am loveblind.

Our fortunes become intertwined.
We’re gravity, magnets. We’re two,
but our souls thrive as one aligned.

It’s impossible to subdue;
my fixation can’t be confined.
This addiction, I can’t construe,
I am loveblind.

With eyes, so cold and dead
Lays this beauty, still in my bed
“I love you”, I said
To recipication, it never led

Eyes, evidence of betrayal and neglect
Life removed, he carried no regret
New love doomed, the stage was set
With open arms, this was met

All signs, disguised by veil
How can this, ever fail?
Without a compass, the ship set sail
The truest union, it was hailed

An infringement of self, on that day
With ego bruised, I showed her the way
Life, without her, better they say
Why, in fetal position do I still lay?

With time past, open the hart
As prepared, for new start
Prescriptions written, on cupids dart
A love planned, like a chart

I caught myself, in her stare
A ***** of passion, in her glare
Eyes so soft, I took the dare
All caution, into thin air

twenty two years
such a great testament
for playing house
together, you've sowed love

i see it in your children
i see it in her chicken soup
i see it in his fancy eyes
hand in hand, playing house

my playmate is far off
in a land i don't know
we stopped playing somehow
but we still look at each other that way

i saw it in our banana pancakes
i saw it in your fixed gaze
hand in hand, we played house
but we're not playing house anymore

i see it all clearly now
the burnt kitchen
the crooked fence
only ashes in the fireplace

the scattered drawers
the empty living room
a wide open front door
abandoned, astray

we never had that house
but i've imagined it so many times
that house, our house
you burned it to the ground

maybe, one day
we can play house

— The End —
