I bid adieu
To the friend I once knew
With a swift “Adios!”
And a glamorous toast.
I’ll wave and say “ciao”
Without knowing how
To say our final goodbye
Without a good cry.
So let’s make this fast
Held with memories that last
And say our concluding farewell
Before my eyes begin to swell.
I know now
That I’m the one to blame
For all of the misunderstandings
And creating a rift
That kept growing
Until it was so large
That both of us collapsed in its depths.
I know now
That my actions are irreparable
In your eyes
But that won’t stop me
From trying to say sorry
From trying to sew up the wounds
That are evident all over my body
And have yet to scar.
I know now
That it takes two people
To make a heart break
And also two people
To put the pieces back together.
I also know
That you will never forgive me
That you’ll go on with your life
And I’ll go on with mine
Wondering
Do you ever think of me?
Are you happy with the way your life turned out?
Are you happy without me?
For the simple reason
That you despise me so much
To the extent of withholding yourself
Of the apology you deserve.
