When I'm gone it's all you got

When I'm gone it's all you got

A Poem by SarahCortland
"

Saying goodbye

"
I'm leaving today 
Goodbye is the hardest to say
I love you surely means nothing
When I'll be gone with the comforting 

I ask you to remember me
To see how I see.
Yet the tears are inevitable
And the pain unbearble 

Though it seems only days ago
That you believed I'd never go
I told you before I must leave
So please don't worry and don't grieve 

I will be okay
So goodbye I must say
I will surely see you again
And tell you of the places I have been,

I'm leaving today
Goodbye is the hardest to say
I love you should mean alot
Because when I'm gone it's all you got

"I love you surely means nothing
When I'll be gone with the comforting"
and
"I'm leaving today
Goodbye is the hardest to say
I love you should mean alot
Because when I'm gone it's all you got"

These two parts were my favorite, though the whole thing was really great. I love reading it, and it hold a very curious statement, that when a loved one is left, all they've got from you are memories. It's painful but true and I appreciate the honesty you share in this piece. Thankyou for sharing

I like what this poem is about but the rhymes seemed forced and it made it an uneasy read

I enjoyed this.
It made me think of someone who can't keep a normal relationship like a soldier being deployed or a cop going undercover or something.
Very cool.
