Goodbye My Heart Goodbye Poem by Arun Maji

O beautiful
I gave you my heart
And promised you my life.
But you drove me far
And hurt me grave.

You possibly wondered-
How could a boy love me so deep
In one single day?
How could a boy promise so big
In blink of an eye?

Sadly, you don't know-
That's the beauty of love.
That's the generosity of lover's heart.

Now, this is time
I withdraw myself.
I am withdrawing
Not because I stopped loving you,
But because, a true lover must protect-
Sanctity of love,
Dignity of love.

A lover is more than happy
To tolerate insult to self,
But he cannot, he should not,
Tolerate Insult to love.

Goodbye my heart,
Goodbye.

But, if any day
You can smell fragrance of love
And see beauty of lover's heart;
Remember me.
I would be there
With my arms stretched
And door open.

Goodbye my heart,
Goodbye.
