No Goodbye

If I knew that today, I
should have said good-bye,
I would have held you close
and looked into your eyes.

You would have seen the love
that dances to music in my heart;
We would have taken what
mattered and made a new start.

I would shout “I love you!”
so loud it hurts your ears.
I would say it long enough so
that minutes turn to years.

I want to turn back time,
and rewrite this all my way,
But reality’s somewhere around
here, I wish it wouldn’t stay.

I won’t make any promises,
you didn’t promise not to leave.
I never said I had strength,
and now I can hardly breathe.

Thoughts of you consume me,
I’m sitting here feeling numb,
Looking for some sort of
emotion, but nothing will come.

Each absent day will haunt me,
and I think I’ll never move.
My plans are full of nothing,
but what will nothing prove?

I didn’t know I should have
said good-bye or make a final plea.
You looked the same as you went off
to work, you left no clue for me.

In the course of unmeasured time,
this day slipped into another dimension.
Did you know that? Or was it
something you forgot to mention?

It’s alright, honey, I
don’t blame fate on you.
I’m lost, I’m searching, you’re
not here to help me through.

Go rest, take the load off,
and whisper in God’s ear.
We’ll remind him how much you’ll
be missed, and that we’re still here.
