Say Goodbye

Darling, if you love me let it show.
If there is no hope, just let me know.
Love is not a game that should be played-
Nor list of sad mistakes which we have made.

Life is far too short to fuss and fight-
If we should fall in love, let’s do it right.
I have to wonder what you saw in me-
If you no longer see it, set me free.

I guess I’ve been a dreamer all my life-
I visualized a princess, not a wife.
When one attempts to live a fairy tale-
There is no doubt that he is doomed to fail.

I think we should consider moving on-
That’s always best whenever love has flown…
Love is but a small four-letter word-
Oft misused, but sweetest that I’ve heard.

Another word, as heavy as a stone-
Makes appearance, after love is gone-
Call it irony, or call it fate…
The word of which I speak is known as “hate”.

It’s sad if two, in love, devolve to this-
What happened to those dreams of loving bliss?
A tragedy when true love has to die-
Far better if we simply say goodbye.
