DON’T BID ME ADIEU





I have to leave
My dear love
My heart silently grieves
As I think of this

Years of togetherness
And now this separation
For lonely phase ahead
Can we have reparation?

Coming times will challenge
Us, and give us pain
Do not deter, keep in mind
There is no gain without pain

As moments of departure
Draws near; it is hard to bear,
And the lump in my throat
Melts tear by tear

I will be gone, but
For a while
You know our destiny has
Other plans, besides

I will be gone, but
Not for long
You will be in my heart
Forever smiling and strong

Distance can not
Weaken our bond
Time will only
Strengthen this chord!

  10. I can so easily relate to it.....love is often the precursor to pain....and when one walks away leaving u stranded amidst memories, u can do nothing more than to wait and hope that the person chooses to return....for there is no element more painful than love, and there is nothing more healing than hope.
