There's always the first guy,
They're the first try,
At love,
But then they're the first lie,
And after that comes the first goodbye,
And don't forget the broken heart,
Thank you
for all the
smiles you gifted
to me,
and for making
my heart
flutter and squeeze
until the stars
disappeared
into the sunrise.
There is a cloud
that shines a color alien to clouds,
and nights are darker than they were.
Blood I have shed
is powder on my memory.
I break on these immortal, broken stones,
and terror's dying haunts my metaphors.
Everybody I have known
is one man waiting on a half-imagined corner
for an unfamiliar face that he has loved.
The color of that cloud is named Goodbye,
for it is raining, shadows, everywhere.
The days have grown as delicate as bones.
The loneliest god in the universe
is walking, and his every word
is possibly goodbye on busy corners.
I used to say hi
But now I say bye
I always think about how I will die
But for now I say bye
I know it's harsh
But it's true
My mind is at ease
I once felt like I wanted too die
But now I don't
I have things too look Forward too
I don't know why I felt that way
But in the end I did
I still do a little
But not much
I think about my life before I came here
But when I do
I have no heart for any other joy,
The drenched September day turns to depart,
And I have said good-bye to what I love;
With my own will I vanquished my own heart.
On the long wind I hear the winter coming,
The window panes are cold and blind with rain;
With my own will I turned the summer from me
And summer will not come to me again.
You went away in summertime
When leaves and flowers were young,
And birds still lingered in the fields
With many songs unsung.
I'm glad it was in summertime
When skies were clear and blue,
I could not say good-bye to you
And bear the winter too.
I PRAYED SO eagerly,
" Turn and see
How bitter I have striven —
A word and all forgiven."
I prayed so eagerly.
I prayed so eagerly —
Not to be ;
You turned and passed. Goodbye !
Fates smile for me, dreamed I —
Yet I prayed eagerly.
