Half of what I say is meaningless; but I say it so that the other half may reach you. --Kahlil Gibran
"Goodbye"
October 24, 2008It’s a word that capsulates my grief
Over a lost love that ironically
I haven’t yet found
In him whose affection
Never reached its depth.
Goodbye is a word that seals
A love story that never fully bloomed:
Ended before it even completely
Unravelled itself.
Goodbye is an act of spreading
My wings away from the
Pitfalls of untested love;
My protest against a passive affection
He claims to be true.
Goodbye is a silenced “I love you”
That never will be told
For my heart decides to mute itself
Because it cannot make an unworthy sacrifice.
