Goodbye
You touched my life and you touched my heart
in ways that I thought were not possible.
You reached into my very soul and saw the pain there
And with the wave of your hand you took the pain away.
You shared with me the innermost part of yourself
Something I know you had not done with anyone
Your presence filled my mind and my heart
And I fell deeply in love with you
Something I never thought would happen again
I gave you all the love that I had
all my dreams,
hopes
and fears,
everything that was a part of me
And you gave to me yours
We were as close as two people could be
one mind,
one heart,
one body
Did that closeness frighten you?
Did you feel
too much
and too deeply?
Did the intensity of my love drive you away?
Although my heart aches to hold you close
And although a part of me feels as if it were gone
I open my arms and let you go my love
If your love was truly mine to begin with
you will come back to me.
And if not
I will treasure the time we had together
in my heart, forever
Thank you for loving me,
and for
teaching me to love.
Thank you for sharing yourself with me
And although you are gone from my life
Know one thing
that
I will always love you.
