Saying Goodbye Poem by mioaw baby

Baby I love you
But I have to move on
You’re nestled in my heart
Like a ticking love bomb.

There has to come a time when I face up to reality
The life that I dreamt was nothing but fantasy
And even though I love you and I always will
If I can’t move on then I am just standing still.

I can’t think of holding you
Or kissing your mouth
Of waking up next to you
Or us living in a nice quiet house.

We won’t have children or a garden in the sun
We won’t have decking for relaxation and fun
We won’t say goodnight and that I love you
We will just live our lives with someone who is not you.

So although we will still chat and ask how each other is
It will just be like any other friend that we sometimes feel we miss
It won’t be every day, but maybe once a week
When we remember that person that made us feel such heat.

No more late night emails
Nor early morning calls
No popping round for coffee
Nor embrace that yearns for more

And then after a while we will forget what we once had
Blame it on the moon, feeling happy or maybe sad
We will pass in the street, say hello with a smile
Then walk on by thinking wow, that’s been a while.

I won’t write you anymore letters because I know it is not fair
The feelings I have, well, you know how much I care
Reading it in print doesn’t change the path we’ve taken
And the feelings I have are good and nothing is forsaken

So this is my last letter and you are now my friend
Not baby, darling, sweetheart nor a love that has no end
You need to understand that this is the only way
The love that we shared is not a place to stay.

I wish you health, wealth and happiness
A future bright with hope
Maybe you will keep this letter, that last I ever wrote.
