When we say goodbye....

when we say goodbye

i will not cry



i will hold you in my arms
and tell you how much you mean to me


but i will not cry


i will touch your face and give you a kiss
and tell you of all the things i'll miss


but i will not cry


i will hold your hand and place it to my heart
for you to know that you will always be there


but i will not cry


i will curse fate for allowing this time, this space
and i will curse myself for allowing it to come this far in the first place


but i will not cry


but when i look back, i will remember you.
and how you made me feel


i will know we hand something
something real


then nothing will or can stop this welling inside


but when we say goodbye....


i will not cry
