A Long Farewell


The things we did

Are yours to keep

My memories

They seem to seep

I just can’t find

Where they’ve gone too

A secret vault

I cannot view

I hope that when

You look at me

The best of times

That you will see

For I’m not mad

I’m still in here

Just locked away

With no idea

Perhaps we’ll find

When this life’s done

We’ll be together

And have such fun

So cherish things

That we once had

The memories

Of things I’m glad

Goodbye my love

Now please don’t cry

Just smile at me

Not wonder why
