GoodbyeA Poem by Essa GWe used to have so much fun We used to tell everyone All our stories and our secrets And the ones we used to love I used to call us friends But now you seem so distant I keep all our memories And treasures in my hand I'm sorry I couldn't be The one you thought was me And I'm sorry I couldn't do Everything you wanted me to I tried so very hard But all I got were scars I began to loose the game So in the end I just gave up One, two, three, four, five That's how many times I cried Every single night I was too afraid and shy I'm sorry I couldn't be The one you thought was me And I'm sorry I couldn't do Everything you wanted me to So let it go and set me free You can't control what I feel If I give up and quit You can't do a thing about it I can't talk about The things you shout aloud The things you laugh about I'm sorry that I let you down I'm sorry I couldn't be The one you thought was me And I'm sorry I couldn't do Everything you wanted me to So now I say goodbye To you and those nights I cried I can be who I want to be If I stand up and try Goodbye to everything we said To the treasures in my head Those memories in my hand And our footprints in the sand And now I say goodbye And I stand stronger and fight I guess forever in your mind Is only a matter of time To you I say goodbye To the world I say hello And I'll rise above the sky And though I failed you I promise I'll make it all © 2013 Essa G |
