I Love You... Good-Bye Poem by Kimberly Lindsey

No matter what has happened, prior to this,
I don’t want to hurt you, that is not what this is.

I love you,
Don’t want to hurt you,
Need you to be okay.

We both know, that we can’t make it work.
We’ve tried so hard, and all it does, is hurt.

I know you love me, in your own way.
But you expect that what you give, is more than okay.

I love you, can’t help it,
tried for seven years to work it out.

There is no respect from you,
And baby, I can’t do this anymore.

I want you to move on,
Find someone,
Who can do for you what I can’t do,
‘cause it is obviously, not enough.

I can’t trust you, no matter, how hard I try,
You have proven, I was wrong,
to keep holding on all this time.

It is time to let go,
To move on with our lives.
And maybe one day, we will love again,
I am damn sure going to try.

My heart is a mess,
From all this unhappiness.
And you, oh, how I love you.

My heart is breaking,
How many tears must I cry?
We’ve been down this road, and back again.
And baby, we both know why.

Just hold me, one last time.
Let me feel your arms around me,
Baby, hold me tight.

Touch your lips against mine,
Let us say good-bye.

Oh, I…
I can feel my heart rending.
Splitting open wide.

This hurts too much, why can’t I just die?
I can’t imagine life without you,
How can I go on?

I would rather slit my wrists,
And feel the pain, never more.

Since that is not option... baby…
I love you..... Good-bye.
