farewell and adieu

farewell and adieu

A Poem by speakingcolors
"

a closing statement for everyone here. for the moment, though, i'm chosing not to close my account in hopes that some of my words may continue to inspire someone out there.

"

i feel that my time here is done,

that i can no longer stay,

and i don't know if i will ever return.

do not fret,

it was nothing you did,

it was more so a doing of myself.

i have become afraid of my words

you see

and what they might do,

so i wish to speak them no longer.

i will always continue to have them

for i do not think

i could ever escape,

but i am afraid you will never again

be able to hear.

and so with a tip of my hat

and a long warm embrace

i say,

farewell and adieu

my dear winsome friend

i leave by train morrow's morning.

I am sorry you have gone because I have just arrived and I like your poetry. If you are by any chance reading this, I just want to say that I identify with your feeling so much it hurts.

This was a brilliant way to say goodbye, and it had so much though in it. I feel that there was also alot of meaning behind it as well. Love your wording in this piece, keep up the great work :)
