How is it goodbye?

Ladywithaquill

How is it goodbye?

How is it goodbye if I still see you,

Every single time I close my eyes.

How is it goodbye if I laugh out loud,

At five-year-old jokes told by you.

 

How is it goodbye?

How is it goodbye if I can feel your hand,

Wrapped perfectly around mine.

How is it goodbye if I can hear your voice,

Whispering sweet nothings in my ear.

 

How is it goodbye?

How is it goodbye if I can still taste you,

And your cigarettes on my lips.

How is it goodbye if you are gone now,

But my love still lives?

    We've all been through breakups, and your poem is empathic to how we feel at those times. We missed the very essence of the one we loved. We would ask ourselves the very same questions you've asked. - Phil A.

      Funny thing is, I’ve never experienced a breakup or been in a relationship 🤣.

      So I’m double glad I could portray that feeling in words without having experienced it myself.
