Paalam ( Goodbye )

The heart is pounding,

Reverberating within the confines of this desperate being.

How a part of me has died,

The moment you said

"We needed time apart."

Because even though I am more than a friend to you

Time and circumstance dictate we say, "Adieu."

There's something about the way you said Goodbye

That tears me up inside

There's a finality to it

You're never coming back.

How I choked up inside

Unable to say,

"Please don't ever leave."

You said to think of you sometime

Especially when it rains.

But how can I ever find comfort

In the healing rain that made us close.

When they could be the tears I shed

Eversince you left.

So here I am,

Staring at nothing really.

Lethargic, listless

Only these three words running through my thoughts,

"I Miss You."
