Farewell For Now

Poem Commentary

I feel there's more to write here, but this is all I have For Now. The melody embodied me and the words came without effort. Less then fifteen minutes I have the first verse. I'll take a moment or two and consider a proper chorus and second verse. If I can bring forth the music from within my soul and manifest it through my guitar the sun may then bring warmth and dry the day.

Farewell For Now

The sky, it cries for you today
As we had to say goodbye
Although you had to go away
You're here within my mind

My heart, it feels a loneliness
A saddened sense of loss
To feel such love it seems so clear
That one must pay a cost

I close my eyes and see your smile
As your eyes touch my soul
Now you're gone I must confess
I do not feel quite whole

I say goodbye, I say farewell
But as I look around
I have some faith and some hope
This is only goodbye for now

Absolutely Beautiful. Short and sweet. Sometimes it does not take a book to convey a feeling or expression, and you have done it here wonderfully. Great Job!

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
