GOODBYE DOESN’T MEAN FOREVER

“Goodbye doesn’t mean forever”
Memories linger in our hearts for ever,
Although we may choose different paths
From my heart you’ll never depart

The words are few, but you comprehend
This love we have will never end,
A pillar of strength you are to me
Comforting me, in my silent plea

My friend, my love, wherever you go
My prayers, my heart, always will follow
From across the oceans, I’ll come to you
For you see, my heart, has always been true

Perhaps one day the pain will subside
Day by day, taking all in stride
I may never utter these words to you
Just look into my eyes, you’ll see they are true!

The tenderness and warmth in your voice reflect
A love and sincerity, I respect
An ODE to you, I offer with a tear
May you live long, without any despair!
