Moggy's Whisperings - 3. Saying Goodbye

How do you say goodbye?
You were a part of me.
In childhood we ran in the meadows.
Sunlight shining,
And wind ruffling our hair.
In high school we studied and,
fumbled with our blossoming feelings.
College separated us by distance but not by love.
Long letters, midnight phone calls.
Adulthood we grew into a family,
Against all the odds and nay sayers.
Old age brought its own issues.
Now the beeps and dings tell me you are leaving.
How do I say goodbye to my heart?

The song you sing is infinitely sad, and far too familiar. You sing it beautifully and evocatively, full of life and imagery. But it is sad enough for tears.

It's never easy... but it's inescapable. I think you said goodbye in a beautiful way, moggy, with this. :heart:

I actually wavered between reactions for this one, moggy. Yes, it is very sad, but there is also a lot of love in it too. 

 

I settled on a sad, but loving goodbye :heart: 

 

Wonderfully written as always, my friend, the emotions your work contains touches me every time 

 

:hug:

thanks Caz. :wub:i understand that issues. i've had that problem before too. through the years, when i've lost someone, i try to keep fresh in my mind, this: We are better for knowing you.  Being held within the hearts you leave behind, is to live forever.
