Goodbye My Love

Its 3 am, I lay awake gazing at the ceiling
Wondering if I should let go, if I will find another love like you
I ask myself how things would have turned out if you had said yes
I wonder how it would have felt kissing your lips, holding your hand 
How I would have felt hearing you whisper the words I love you in my ear
The warmth of your breath caressing my skin, your heart beating against mine
Thinking about things I should have said or done differently
It’s been hard holding on to a love that I know will never be
But it’s been even harder every time I tried to give up knowing you are everything I need
I love you and its killing me, you make me smile even if you are the reason I’m sad
I am scared of losing you forever and then again you’re not mine

Simply amazing, The dream that will never be, You are beautiful
Poems from my heart to you and years later I still can’t have you
You are the girl that all my poems are about
You are the girl that is always on my mind, in my heart, dreams and plans
You are the girl I want to have babies with, grow old with and spend and multiple eternities with
From the moment I said hello I knew I wanted you forever
If there is one thing I have done right, it’s giving my heart to you
I can’t breathe without you, I can’t be happy without you, but I have to let go

It’s time to say goodbye my love, I have to move on even though the heart wants to hold on
I will always love you but I can’t keep on holding on to something will never be
I can’t make you love me and you can’t make your heart feel something it won’t 
I tried my best, I tried to get into your heart but I can’t make you love me
Please promise me you always remember me.
Giving up on us has been the hardest thing I have ever done 
But I just don’t want to go knowing I meant absolutely nothing to you
I will never forget you, I will always keep you on my mind and in my heart
I will always love you my love
Goodbye my love
