Farewell Poem by Holly Jamestone

The light has come to rescue me
And confidence, my friend
Will conquer fear and lift me up
And guide me till the end

My life has changed and I am spared
From ever going through
More yearning or a heartstring torn
From holding onto you

Things have changed but life goes on
As does a moving stream
And sometimes love's bright sparkle
Loses luster and its gleam

Now on the way to brighter days
I do not feel alone
I won't look back or rue the times
I waited by the phone

It's more than time for me to go
And seek the love I crave
And treasure what you tried to give
Not what you never gave
