It's Time To Let Go

February 3, 2009

Where has the time gone?
We have no idea where we're going,
And you've faded from the life you once lived.
Gone in the wind,
Yet somehow, you're still there.

But, everything's okay.
I've said my goodbyes.
My eyes glance up to the night sky.
Your image sets there,
And I start to believe,
Because it's okay.
It's just one little goodbye.

In the back of our minds,
We knew this would come.
It was hard to deal with.
Especially when we knew we'd be left feeling empty.

It's okay, no worries.
I'm just saying one little goodbye.
Staring up at the stars,
I believe, I believe,
That everything's okay,
With another little goodbye.

So much time has gone before our eyes,
And yet we still have no idea where we're going.
You're not here anymore,
And I've never felt so alone.

But it's okay,
Just one simple goodbye,
Or perhaps not that simple.
And I'm still searching in the stars.
Still believing.
Because it's all okay.
Farewell, my friend. Farewell.

I cannot believe no one else has commented on this wonderful poem! I would tell you how much I can relate to it, but its too long. If you check out my article "What Could Have Been" You'll know. Thats only if you want to know. I'm sorry for whatever the situation may be, losing a friend, in any way is never easy. Well, I loved this, definately deserves more credit! keep writing!
