Goodbye

by Naima


How do I say goodbye to my friend?
When all I can think about are the good times we shared
Laughing and joking and talking
About life and dreams and things.....
And discovering all of the ways we were alike
All I see when I close my eyes
Is his beautiful smile [and daisies]

How do I say goodbye to my lover?
When it's so hard at night not to picture him
And me together making sweet......memories
All I think of when I close my eyes
Is his soft breath on my neck as he holds me
After we are tired and happy
And I feel so warm [and safe]

How do I say goodbye to my inspiration?
When I look in the mirror and I
Sometimes can see his expressions
Through mine and I say words he sometimes said to me
All I can remember when I close my eyes
Is how his lips make the words when he says
The right things [about everything]

How do I say goodbye to my man?
When I had so many plans
Dreams of us in many scenarios
All the places I wanted us to see
Coming home to him and our family
All I imagine when I close my eyes
Is us together [forever]

How do I say goodbye to my angel?
When He sent someone to take care of me
and make sure I am okay
Sometimes I could feel the good in the way he moved;
And the way he is sometimes very innocent
Like something so pure
All I want to do when I close my eyes
Is thank him for everything he did [for me]
