Adios, Adieu, Sayonara To You

Adios, Adieu, Sayonara To You

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)
"

I was never good at sayin' goodbye (and I don't know why)

"

`I think I might just turn about

and proudly walk away

I think I might just strut right out

without another word to say


Keep my calm, maintain my poise

Perhaps it’s best that way

Lips pressed tight, there’ll be no noise

As quiet as the break of day


I’ll leave my pride behind me

With all else I once held dear

I pled my case ‘pon my knee

Only for it to fall ‘pon deafened ear


It would seem by now I’d know somehow

With a leaden heart and heavy sigh

To say ‘Adieu my sweet...I leave you now`

But I was never na good at saying

...Goodbye...
