Goodbye Forever Poem by Joanna Pavlides

Too painful to read
What I’ve written

Every word
Like a sharp piece
Of broken love
Burns my skin
That was once
Touched
And kissed
Caressed with your lips

Grains of sand
In my eyes
The wind blew
Off the beach
On which
You made love to her
And not to me

Sorrow and wrath
Through the body roll
Through the flesh
You cherished and held
In the darkness
Of each night
So lovingly tight

The daydreams
You take
And I give away these
As the meaning of them
You’ve lost
When you were losing me
With her

It’s time for
Goodbye hour
For forever
No matter how many hours
Days or years
Is forever
Goodbye now and ever
