The Hard Goodbye
How can we both, finally say goodbye
When all I think, you’ll ask is why
I gave up caring and supporting you
When really this is all I do.
Now your gone, my hearts a flutter
Emotions in words, come out as a stutter
I think did I fail? Or did you prevail?
My faults and mistakes are not yours to bear
You have enough trauma yourself to wear
I felt I was lost, like tears in rain
I wasn’t enough, to support you in pain
So I let you go, so better you could live
You needed much more, that I couldn’t give
Am I happy, am I free? … alas but No
My guilt lands it's heavy blow
So I hope you realise, why I said goodbye
As If I didn’t, I would have died
So I left you with this, my hard goodbye
