Goodbye

Goodbye

A Poem by Haley Lynn Thomas
"

A poem written for two people

"

Underneath all this anger

Is a pain I can't deny

My chest is throbbing

WIth this incessant ache

 

Underneath all this hatred

Is a tiny voice

That is growing louder

Saying "I miss you"

 

BUt I don't want to face

The hurt struggling to escape

It was easier just blaming you

Than to admit we were equally wrong

 

Goodbye to a friendship

Goodbye to our long talks

Goodbye to my confidant

Goodbye to me wasting my time

 

But underneath the "whatever"

And me saying "I don't need you, anyway"

Is a thiny reminder

Of how things used to be between us

 

Before things turned sour

When we were still okay

Now I desired some sort of closure

ANd I deserved some kind of explination

 

I gave you too much credit

I had too high expectations

One thing I've learned from this disaster

Is you don't always know who you can trust

 

I don't know why they call it goodbye

This one is more of a sad one

I never thought I'd be saying goodbye

Not just once, but twice
