Goodbye
As I say goodbye
To the last 12 years,
Oddly enough
Its without tears.
We just didnt have
What it takes,
To make this marriage work
To avoid the aches.
I have no sorrow
No hard feelings what so ever,
For there are good memories
And a son to keep forever.
Here I stand
At yet another crossroad,
So eager to see
How this path will unfold.
A promise of another adventure
Will you, can you wish me well,
I would return the gesture
If it were your happiness up for sale.
Not for money
But a heart on the line,
Perhaps too soon in your eyes
But the chance I take is mine.
I may fall along my way
But never because I fail,
But because I chose to live
Tired of hiding and tucking tail.
It all sounds so selfish
But this I know,
My children will always be with me
And a whole world to them I want to show.
Life is about experiencing
All it has to offer,
And if I can give to them more than I had
The more challenges they will conquer.
Success will be theirs
Isnt that what all parents strive for?
So back me up and offer your support
For life is worth living-who knows whats in store.
