Goodbye

By: susan-louise hensler

You called me names, you made me cry;
But then we changed in the blink of an eye.

You said you were sorry and wanted to be friends;
Who would've known it would last till the end.

As we got older my feelings grew;
And then you said you loved me too.

We grew closer and closer, more each day;
Nobody ever loved me that way.

As time passed by we laughed and smiled;
We even got married and had a child.

As he grew older you loved him so much;
He grew up so fast, it was all too rushed.

Then out of the blue, you got so sick;
I couldn't believe it happened so quick.

One night in bed you started to cry;
You told me you loved me, I didn't know why.

That night God said it was your time to go;
Why he took you from us I'll never know.

My love for you will never end;
Goodbye to you, my dearest friend.
