Goodbye

I never thought I'd have to say

Those words that follow you when you walk away

I always hated saying goodbye

But now that you're leaving, I must try

You started as a stranger to me

Now without you, I'm afraid to be

Why can't you stay just a little longer

Maybe then our friendship can grow stronger

To a place you call home you must go

Tears I will hide, friendship I will show

This is a poem for your departure

My love for you it will capture

Goodbye, my dear friend

Too bad this is the end.
