Goodbye- A Poem

Awkward silence

Ignored advances

Hidden tears

Lost love

Time to say goodbye

Time to go


“Goodbye” is a poem that first appeared on Lifesfinewhine. I think about endings and beginnings a lot. And this poem is about the end of a longterm relationship. And the emotions that come along with this ending. Relationships are difficult and complicated as it is. And I am not someone who is very good at long-term relationships. I tend to shut down when things get serious and find it difficult to stay excited about the relationship once it gets older. Those feelings are what inspired this poem.

How do you feel about goodbyes? And how do you feel about ending? Do you believe endings lead to new beginnings? Or are you devastated when something ends? Let me know in the comments below because I am very curious about your thoughts and would love to hear your answers on this topic. Or simply stop by and say hi!
