Puella Tristis est de Poetica

I Love You, Goodbye

I Love You, Goodbye

I love you, Goodbye

October 19, 2021


Our love was always like the stars

Only appearing at night

Bright and soft all at once

I love you, though I don't have the right


Can’t I just keep dreaming

Of things that could never be

I just want to keep sleeping

So you can be all that I see


Our love was always meant to be like a mist

That fades away into the night

Slowly erasing all that ever was

Taking away the precious light


Can’t I keep pretending

That this is real and true

Can I pretend I’m there

And that you love me too?


I was getting so used to

Hearing your voice

And listening to your song

I was falling so hard for

All of your words

And singing along


But the melody has changed

It’s now bittersweet

I can’t match your range

I keep missing the beat


Can’t I just keep dreaming

Of things that could never be

I just want to keep sleeping

So you can be all I see


It’s hard to believe

That we should never have met

And though it may seem

That I’ll soon forget 


You’ve branded my heart

With a mark of hope

But now it’s time

To let go of the rope


Our love was always like the stars

Higher than even the sky

But when the sun rises, I say

I love you, Goodbye

Truly enjoy your poetry, makes me tear up! Keep up the good work. I can tell maybe you're down from your last poem, the one about sleeping alone. Anyways I just hope you're okay and hope you know everything's gonna be alright, keep your chin up.

Contained is a collection of poems written by Emily Lynn Hayes (formerly known as Emily Lushbaugh)

CAUTION (CUIDADO): Some of these poems are graphic and describe sensitive issues such as: child abuse, suicide, and more. (Will try to include some happy poetry - if the Poem Gods permit)
