Good Bye My Love Poem by Lisa Culley

Good Bye My Love

Rating: 5.0


There's a reason I've turned away from your love.
Depriving myself of the man I've drempt of.
Your heart reaching for mine,
words sweet as wine.
Your touch, heaven sent from above.

A sentence of death has been handed to me.
Of mind, body and soul, our love never to be.
Please turn and walk on,
not just after I'm gone,
but now, as my tears set you free.

Your deserving of love that's enduring forever.
I've prayed I could give you, 'Happily Ever After'.
But, now it's to late.
I must face my fate.
Forgive me, my love, I'm not stronger.

Please understand that your love is my dream.
Your arms wrapped around me, secure, it would seem.
No protection from death
as I take my last breath
and darkness creeps over my being.

Good bye my love, I'm pleading.

I must face my fate. Forgive me, my love, I'm not stronger. The challenge of facing fate is seldom observed in everyone of us.We challenge God when we fail to challenge fate.We forget that our so called destiny is already designed by God.We are just here for its maintenance.Herein truth comes out hectic though and truth is always as simple but as heavy as a thousand lies. But human beings should learn the art of forgiving.Here we rediscover God. Realistic bent of mind would be 'Let bygones be bygones and let people who wants to go go and remain sweet memories to cherish for you'........... I appreciate the way you write.10+++brilliant.
