Not Goodbye

Sometimes letting go of a friendship is best, not a goodbye its not about finality.

The absence of your love devastates my heart

Where your soul once stood by my side lays an empty yearning

For you to come back home

 

When I ask where you have gone

Your reply is “right here”

But the real colorful soul you once possessed is no where in sight.

 

Eloquent words of poetic device once filled conversation

Melodic progressions of song have become mute

Laughter silenced in the depth of the night

 

Chasing your scared heart

Consoling the love of your soul

Holding on until now

 

I pray your soul flies smoothly into the summer breeze

Where the moon can sweep our off your feet

And the tides can wash all away

Where the sun can brighten your spirit

And your heart may shine once again with radiance

 

Dance until the day is at dawn in the heavenly eternity of grace

Laugh into the darkness of earth for the light to invade

Smile at changing season of life

And sleep at peace until the heavenly kingdom comes

 

Goodbye is only the beginning

Of a friendship to last eternity

Within the garden of our heavenly father

 

Our hearts will be one once again someday soon

The soul will fulfill every aspect of joy

At home we will be

 

Poetry will come with the summer breeze

Songs of praise will light up the soul in volume

Laughter will reign from our Lord Jesus Christ

 

Holding your sacred heart

Consoling our friendship

Holding on for eternity

 

I pray until that day you can love me in your heart

When you look deep within you always know my love for you

And the tide will be a constant reminder of memories we shared

The sun represents the promises of God

And your heart shines once again with true brilliance

 

Goodbye to this earthly friendship

For eternity we shall be friends

"When I ask where you have gone
Your reply is 'right here'." - Oh how someone can be with us but yet so far away. I know that feeling too well. You expressed it in a very simple and powerful way.

A truly great and heartfelt poem!
