    Good-bye to You
    Stranded on a desert,
    All alone,
    Searching,
    Wanting,
    Needing,

    I started to think I'd die,
    If you didn't love me,
    Like I love you,
    My heart began to hallucinate,
    Seeing things I wanted to see,

    Fantasy became reality in my mind,
    I saw what I wanted to see,
    I thought I needed you to complete me,
    Without you,
    My heart was torn in two,

    But, I know now that I was only pretending,
    And, I found a way out of the desert,
    I was woken from my reverie,
    Reality is where I need to be,
    Time to shut the book on my fairytale,

    I don't need anyone to define me,
    I define myself,
    No longer searching,
    Wanting,
    Or needing you,

    I can make it on my own,
    I guess the truth is,
    I always have been able to,
    I just didn't see it,
    But, I can see clearly now,

    One last look over my shoulder,
    Just one last look,
    To say good-bye,
    To my dreams,
    And, to you.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
