Goodnight
Close your eyes one last time
There will be no morning
There will be no alarm buzzing in your head
Just sweet thoughts of eternity
There will be no morning coffee
No fluffy pancakes drizzled with syrup
Just the drizzle of tears and rain
On a grave you dont belong in
Goodnight
Dear friend, who made the nights pass easier
Who could always be counted on at 2 a.m.
To lend a sleepy ear
There will be no more late-night calls
No more midnight memories on lonely nights
Only dark nights that never end
There will be no watching the sun rise
No calling off work and sleeping all day
Just sleep... forever.
Goodnight
Young heart
Broken over time and pieced back together
There will be no more falling in love
And candlelight dinners
Only a candlelight vigil
There will be no white wedding and walking down the aisle
This church will be draped in black
Black dresses and suits, and black streaks of mascara down pale cheeks
There will be no "I do"
Only Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye friend, I'll see you tomorrow at Play Time.
Goodbye friend, I'll see you tomorrow at Recess.
Goodbye friend, I'll see you tomorrow at Lunch, while we share a peanut butter sandwich with the crusts cut off.
Goodbye friend, I'll see tomorrow at the Prom. I know you'll look beautiful.
Goodbye friend, I'll see tomorrow at Graduation. Don't forget your tassle, and a pack of tissues.
Goodbye friend, I'll write to you as soon as I get settled into my dorm.
Goodbye friend, I'll come visit next week.
Goodbye friend, it's been another awesome party, drive careful, and i'll see you tomorrow.
Goodbye friend, I'll talk to you again soon.
Goodbye friend, I hope you will consider being in the wedding party.
Goodbye friend, don't cry, we'll see each other again tomorrow...
All those times we said goodbye...
It was so easy
Why now, cant I find a way to say goodbye to you?
Why can't I tear my eyes away
And keep walking?
Why can't I force a smile and say Thanks, for another wonderful day?
Why can't I close this scrapbook, and let the memories just tell their own tales?
Why is it that you look so, unreal?
I feel like maybe we should hug or something, and I can walk you to your car, or you to mine...
And when you drive away I will just watch your car disappear into the distance,
And know that wherever you're going, you will be safe, and happy.
Goodbye.
Friend, who touched my heart in so many ways.
Who never let me eat lunch by myself
Who helped me with math
And lended me their teddy when mine became too tear-soaked to sleep with
Who held my hand when i went to the doctor
Who taught me how to dream
And how to let go of old dreams
Who believed in me when no one else did
Who did my makeup for the Prom
And drove me home from parties when i drank too much
Who sent me cards from college
And danced all night with me on so many nights
Who gave me a reason not to give up when i wanted to
Goodbye.
Friend,
I still don't understand why you had to leave
When we are still so young
And have so many more nights of dancing ahead of us...
And one more graduation
And a wedding
And buying cutesie baby clothes to do...
I don't know why when we talked late at night about what we do about this, and about that in the future,
Why we never talked about this...
Cuz maybe then I would know what to do now,
Or what to say.
Goodbye.
Friend, I love you.
Don't worry about your teddy...
He has a home here, in my bed
As you will always have a home,
Here in my heart.
Dedicated to the memory of a dear friend.
