Goodbye My Love

Erik Novak

Love, I would have given you my all.
I loved you,
and you loved me.
You were the girl of my dreams!
And the better part of me.
I loved how we were.
It was like a blur.
Me and you,
you and I.
It was like nothing could ever hurt me.
I wish you would see.
I found strength in you,
I wish you did too.
Knowing it would be alright.
Knowing that every night.
Knowing that you loved me too… 
Or did you?

Part of me is gone.
It has moved on.
The part of me for love,
the part of me that loved,
the part of me that cared for you.
The part of me that missed you too. 
Everything about you.
They way we talked up into the night.
The way I hold you in my arms so tight.
I miss the kisses and hugs.
It was my drug!
My heart is broken.
It goes unspoken.
My heart will not mend.
You will never loved me again.

To you I say,
I hope you have a good day.
I hope your life is just fine.
Even if your not mine.
Cause for all the hate,
And all the weight.
All the hurt,
as I’m kicked to the dirt.
I still love you.
And I want the best for you. 
I hope you find that perfect guy.
The one with the best eyes.
The guy of your dreams.
To mend all your seams.
The guy that makes you feel good.
The one I know would.
Someone who makes you feel love.
Someone who is your turtledove.
A guy better than me.
For I don't have the key.
The key to your heart.
I'm not that smart.

Goodbye my love.
There's so much to think of.
Goodbye my life.
Which feels like a knife.
Goodbye to the talks,
and goodbye to the thoughts. 
I’ll be here,
If you ever reappear. 
Missing you,
crying too.
Goodbye my love.
