A Painful Goodbye

This is the day I say goodbye to a person I knew.

Our paths and priorities have changed,

And our relationship will never be the same.

You keep your news hidden from the person you call mom

Perhaps because you’re afraid to drop the bomb

Of love, cohabitation, engagement, and marriage.

I see and hear of the love bombing, isolation, and manipulations.

You’re headed down the track that may end all relations.

This is the day I say goodbye to the person I knew.

Our paths and priorities have changed,

And our relationship will never be the same.

You chose a person who gets what they want

No matter who they hurt or destroy.

They’re selfish and impulsive

While pretending to live a life of joy.

This is the day I say goodbye to the person I knew.

Our paths and priorities have changed,

And our relationship will never be the same.

Your actions cut my heart,

And I will grieve my loss.

I don’t know how long it will be

Until you’re no longer in my thoughts.
