Goodbye Is What Needs To Be Said Poem by Daniel Wittfoth

What is there left to say
when all the words have already been spoken
And what wasn't said
just seems to linger in the air-thick and cold
Somethings I guess are best unsaid
when anger seems to fill up every misunderstanding
until it feels as though it's not worth it to continue

Broken dishes and fragemented pictures
wanted dreams left unseen
And everything feels as if it's ripping at the seams
looking for salvation in your arms
but getting only distance and overwhelming darkness

I guess that's okay
there is truly nothing left for us to say
The distance and this overwhelming darkness
it's leaving me so empty and lonely
It was bound to happen
and now I can truly see
goodbye is what needs to be said

It's summer outside
but frost lays deep and cruel across this heart of mine
I should go-I should stay
all the warning signs are here
Is it true in what they say
unanswered prayers hold the key-the meaning

Feel like I'm just the next in line
like those before me that you left in time
Hesitation plays in every moment of the day
I need something more than this
something honest to believe in
I'm breathing-my heart is beating
but this easy silence between us is killing me
buried in this coffen you have built for me

I guess that's okay
there is truly nothing left for us to say
The distance and this overwhelming darkness
it's leaving me so empty and lonely
It was bound to happen
and now I can truly see
goodbye is what needs to be said

Were we too young
how did we get from making love
to making something out of nothing at all
And I've only got so many tears
before I swear my heart will die
Is it wrong of me
to just want to hold onto-the dream
of all you once promised me

I guess that's okay
there is truly nothing left for us to say
The distance and this overwhelming darkness
it's leaving me so empty and lonely
It was bound to happen
and now I can truly see
goodbye is what needs to be said...
