Say Goodbye Poem by M.J. Lemon

Say Goodbye

Rating: 5.0

Another year of letting go
goodbye fame, fortune and seeking approval
they're gone

say goodbye to work, work-life balance, prosperity
they're on the way, on the way out
the door

say goodbye to dreams, aspirations, success
they take dedication
farewell illusions

there goes the empire
they went, the colonies, the resources
no more dominions

goodbye muscles, muscle tone,
hair, physique, chiseled jaw line
just say goodbye already

hanging by a thread
the frozen dinner, the mass market beer
will they always be here?

Or do they say goodbye
unlike those those things we can do
but wish we couldn't?

I can eat frozen dinners and drink mass market beer, but I shouldn't, couldn't and wouldn't! That just wouldn't be any fun! My Friend, wishing you and yours A New Year full of excellent meals and the very best beer! Have A Great 2025!
