Speaking Out

Goodbye

Goodbye

It's funny how something important as trust easily turns to dust

How something so simple as a smile easily hides away denial

How something you think means nothing easily hurts 'cause to me it means everything

I ran away 'cause I didn't want anyone to see me cry

But when you came looking for me I cried even more 'cause you're the first person who ever cared to try

I hid behind my walls but I had a perfect view

I fought back tears when I saw what I was doing to you

I saw worry on your face and I felt happy yet sad

You looked for me and I hid from you and for that I feel bad

You made time to find me to see if I was alright

You put in effort but I remained out of sight

The pain on your face is something I never wanted to see

It hurts even more 'cause I know it's because of me

I never wanted to hurt anyone, that's why I stay alone

But you took me in and made me feel like I belong

I never want to hurt you again, that's why I have to go

I don't have the heart to say this face to face so this poem will let you know

I hope you won't hate me for what I'm about to do

I'm sorry for not leaving you a single clue

I'm almost done writing so I breathe deeply and sigh

As I say the word that'll once again make you cry

I'm sorry for this just please don't ask why

I have nothing else to say so I'm sorry but Goodbye
