Silent Goodbye


I waited to see you again.
Sat as the hours went by.
The longer that you were away.
The more darkness took over the sky.
I'd sit and play with a string,
On the jacket you left the night before last.
Remembering all the memories,
Smilling back on our past.
Then finally you showed up.
Finally came back into my view.
But the smile was gone from your face.
The smile I loved and knew.
You seemed shifty as you paced,
Trying to find words to explain.
I knew what was going on, I stood.
And my eyes shone with the pain.
You recognized the signal.
No more words were said.
You turned and left me there.
The silence left me dead.
I sat back down to watch you.
My love who walked away.
I loved you and you hurt me.
There's just nothing more to say.
