Goodbye

It's almost been a month since the last time we spoke
It's been about an hour since you were on my mind
I want to talk to you, but I would just choke
Besides the words are too hard to find.

And every attempt at communication fails
You're obviously sticking to your guns
You led me blind down this trail
And then suddenly tell me we're done

I can't stop thinking about what we had
I kept this hope deep down inside
That you'd come to your senses and come back
But I was just living a lie

I wonder how you spent your holidays
Did you celebrate with family & friends?
Were you hungover on New Years Day?
I was home in bed.

I know it's time for me to move on
And realize you're not coming back
I never thought that you'd be gone
At least not like that

So this is where I start again
Take time to think about me
I'm done dealing with men
They take too much of my energy

So I finally erased your number like you asked
I've wiped you clean from my phone
Now I just have to try to erase the past
Because I've never felt more alone.

I put all your pictures away
I can't look at them any more
I'm going to move on with life today
and hope it makes me stronger than before

So here is where I say goodbye
Pack you away with all the rest
Leave the memories of you behind
The times we spent were the best

I hope life treats you well
Maybe someday we'll meet again
Til then I bid you my final farewell
I hope someday we can be friends.
