Saying Goodbye

by Kelsey Beck

And somehow I manage to miss you more each day.

Never thought we would ever say

Good-bye,

So long,

May you find where you belong.

But I miss your "Good morning." texts at one in the afternoon,

The way you'd say "Be there soon,"

And still manage to be late.

I miss the way you'd spend the day in bed,

Pull me in,

But we'd talk instead.

I miss the way you'd look at me,

Eyes lit bright and hearts racing so right.

I can't stand the fact that you walked away,

Because to him I was just a chance to play.

And it drives me crazy knowing you're still okay.

It's like you don't miss me.

And still I miss you more each day.

Never thought we would every say

Good-bye.
