Never Say Goodbye

You can never forget you imaginary friend.

I’ll never say goodbye.

Because saying goodbye means forgetting,

And how could I never let you go?

We played and told stories, fought pirates!

Do you remember how high we soared?

When we could play and never never

Never grow up.

The little wonders of worlds we made,

The dreams we grew,

I will never forget.

You won’t forget either.

Because you were never there to begin with.

To start with it reminded me about parting with friends from childhood, something I can relate too a great deal at the moment, but when I found out it was about an imaginary friend I felt sad it wasn't real to my situation yet glad there was a slightly more humorous, while still sorrowful, feel to this poem.
Long story short, I like it because it fits more than one scenario and still remains heartfelt and sad. :)

This is a great piece of work! I like it! If you want my advice for future poems, all I have to say is that you should try to add more emotion by using mood words and adjectives from the heart.

Your work is captivating. I love the play of words and change of ideas " We played and told stories, fought pirates! "

This is nostalgia fuel. Many memories from my own childhood raced rapidly back and forth in my head as I progressed line by line. It has provided growth for my capacity of understanding the capability of raw imagination and creativity; of it's infinite power and the lifelong dreams, peace, and conflict that are bundled within it.

It reminds me of that Spongebob episode in which he and Patrick have more fun pretending inside of a cardboard box than Squidward does just living his life.

Reading this made me less of a Squidward.

This is really great. "Because you were never there to begin with." that explains the whole. Great one.
