A Simple Bye. Poem by bernard ogalo oduor

When you left in the morning
Why didn’t you say that you won't be coming?
When I told you to buy me a gift
Why didn’t you say there you won't get

You just walked away
And I wished you a good day
Then you disappeared away

I hate to remember the rest
For my heart has never known a rest
In my life you were the best
But away you went in haste

I wish to smile
But I remember the mile
I wish for laughter
But my teeth clutter

The memories are old
The times too cold
If you were aboard
My hand you would hold
But forever you are gone
As if you never were known
But tomorrow a flower I will buy
And where you lie pass-by
To wish you just a simple bye.
My love, goodbye.
