Special Goodbye
I met you for a reason.
I know you do not see this but it is true.
It is proven in my mind, this theory.
I met you so you can leave me.
Your time was limited and this was known from the begining.
You were leaving and it never occured to me your lesson.
I was so used to people leaving for no reason.
To walk out on me with no words left;
Just the deafening silence of solitary.
I was used to the carelessness of others,
And the disregard of my feelings.
But you knew you had to go.
I knew you had to go.
In such a short time I grew comfortable around you.
And you, the same.
I saw it in your eyes;
The relaxation to be yourself without judgment.
The foolish little boy who came out that was always inside of you.
I never thought I would like blue eyes again until I met you.
The crinkle of your face as you laugh at my moronic jokes
Is how I will rememeber you.
You truely are one of a kind.
I will never admit to it, especially to your face,
But you mean so much to me.
Simply because you taught me how to say goodbye.
I said goodbye to you in a healthy way.
The lesson was learning to say goodbye.
