Farewell Poem by Kwenadi Gaaje

Remember the promises we made
The day we met
The songs we sang together
The paths I embarked with you
The tryst in the dark I had with you.

The hand that used to warm me up
Is about to go warm another
A love meant to be mine is no more.


Tomorrow feels so dark
And lonely
Baby I wish not to walk alone
To the pit of loneliness
The journey feels so long without you.

'Goodbye' Is the saddest word in my vocabulary never thought would exist.
It's a pain in me
A strain in me that I even fail to carry on with my life without you.

Even when you are sleeping right beside me
It feels like we are million miles apart
It's a sign that our hearts are drifting further apart.
Our love is ending.

Is there hope to hold on?
Is there faith in me that you're just distracted by your thoughts?
I anticipate your heart isn't singing the same song as your mind.

It kills me to say "Goodbye"
It shatters my soul to see you walking out that door.
It breaks my heart to hear you say " You are to start a new love journey with her ".

I know
It's time to say our final goodbye's
I guess this is how our story ends
Our journey has come to part
Silly me - There's really no need for me to cry
But I'll try not to cry
I'll try to learn to walk down the path of my journey without you in it..

I'll carry the pain in my heart
I hope someday rain will shower off my face and wipe all the tears that filled my eyes with endless sorrow.
I'll try to smile although it hurts.

I am not going to say "Goodbye"
But Farewell
Farewell
