I could easily foretell <br />You had something to tell <br />As you dropped a stinking bombshell <br /> <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />With words I spell <br />It all out in a nutshell <br /> <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />What else can I say? <br />When you take off today for good <br /> <br />Farewell I say with a broken mood <br />Farewell there goes my wedding bell <br />Farewell there goes your innocent smell <br />Farewell there goes our fun in and out of hotels <br />Farewell I hope that life treats you well <br /> <br />Farewell in your ventures <br />Our spent time is my treasure <br />Your heart must wander to where it belongs <br />Friend, I only urge you to be strong <br />With love you can simply do no wrong <br />I say it with these words tipping off my tongue <br /> <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />I am a great believer <br />Farewell is not forever <br />I say not goodbye <br />I do not wish to sit and cry <br /> <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />What else can I say? <br />You weren’t meant to stay <br />I will do nothing to detain <br />You from flying on that plane <br /> <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />I say with pain <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />In sunshine or in rain <br />One day, one day <br />I know we’ll see again <br /> <br />Farewell, farewell my friend <br />I cannot stand and pretend <br />That a part me <br />With you, would still like to be!<br /><br />Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/farewell-my-friend/
