Hauntingly echoing in your heart,
Every lobe of your being longed to part.
Lingering sorrow seeps deep into your soul,
Life is a river that endlessly flows.
Long-held secrets that you can no longer keep,
Is goodbye the only answer left for you to reap?
Once-bright words spoken, now forgotten and bleak,
Echoes of love and laughter fade from the peak.
Outwardly you may seem calm and composed,
Yet inside your mind is eternally…
