The moment for goodbye has neared

Sometimes it's so hard to walk away, but in our hearts we know it is time...

 

Freedom.. Oh such a word
To live in peace, harmony
Never with worries, strife
In ones daily life.

Ohh so sweet the sound
Yet a dream, unreal as it seems
For no freedom do I own
No worries to let go.

For I carry them deep within
Always have, from the start
Of lifes many struggles, lifes many pains.
I have bloodshed to prove it, hey.. can you see the stains?

I find myself doing so, over and over, once again
.I watch all move around, with not a single sound
Their smiles set in place, on a emotionless face.

Then wonder what is in it for me
Or do I even belong among this human race?
For different I am, different I shall always be
For what was given as a gift, was only misery.

A faceless wonder, with such a horrid past
A dance for a dime, oh what a waste of my time
A moment of peace, just a fleeting release
Who to trust, well I say not much!

For all that I am, seems to be just a flam
For all that I do, seems to not matter to you
For all that I give, no more room for me to live
For all that I try, you just let it go on by.

So to this I only say, go on.. Have your way
What little respect.. Is now gone with regret
Only the caring get hurt, for others load with dirt
The week, oh so meek, are only heading for defeat.

So friend I just want to say, you have had you day
No more thoughts will fly on by, I won't even try
Nothing in my heart, for no longer are you a part.
What joy that once was, has flown with the dust.

So goodbye my friend, back to never-never land
You shall go, along with your woes, oh which once hurt me so
For I have my own life, yes though their may be strife
But my own they are, and with them I've handled so far.

Rest easy in your dreams, for nothing else do they seem
Tears of pain, please don't release them again
For all just a means, to get one on their knees
Well hurt mine are now, but no longer they shall.

The road ahead, is lathered in the softest dreams
Of life and love, from moments that I shall soon see
The tears which are real, I so do feel
To them I go, for my pride I still do show.

Form a time of once long ago, of a woman with heart,
Well she's moving on, and making a brand new start
And sorry my friend, in it you have no part
No room at the inn, for to let in would be a sin.

No.... The moment for goodbye has neared
And you know what? it is not as I once feared
No tears do I shed, no pain held deep inside
For I am walking away my head held high.

And along with it, follows my once lost pride....

A faceless wonder, with such a horrid past
A dance for a dime, oh what a waste of my time
A moment of peace, just a fleeting release

Deeply emotional my friend... very powerful words of goodbye and moving on to build the person you once were... I can feel the hope beneath the pain and regret.
