Goodbye

Tears of Despair

Fall down the innocent cheeks of love

For a journey of bliss, put to the test

Ending in tragedy

The Romeo and Juliet of a lifetime

Looking back hardens the heart

Nothing left to hold onto

It's time, It's the end

It's hard to believe it was real

Or was it all in my head?

Imagination is powerful

But I thought our love was greater

Everlasting in this world

But was it just a figment of the truth?

It's all I think about

Thoughts blaring in my head

Aching to the beat of brokeness

It's unfair, but it's life

And I have to keep living

moving on is my hope

For a new beginning 

Never forgetting what was done,

what was said, the love given

But as time goes on it hurts less and less

Memories are a past

ill never forget

But I have to say goodbye

For there is too much hurt inside

Giving up on what is good

Never easy, but needing

To reach my happiness

To mend my pain

Hate has lit my sky with clouds of grey

All that's left to do is let go

Fly away from the nest

Be free from your grip

The safety you gave me

No longer found in you

I spread my own wings now 

And never think of you

I like your poem where did u come up with the idea

Lexiengton

Thank you! And I had recently been through a tough breakup, which took me three poems to finally move on. This was the 3rd poem of my sort of breakup saga, and I wrote it for myself so that I could finally let go of my anger and my sadness. I was kind of just done with all the feelings one day and the words just came to me and inspired me to write this poem.
