Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

GOODBYE


THE TRUST IS GONE
THE WARMTH IS GONE
THE LOVE IS GONE
GONE WITH THE LIES
GONE WITH THE BETRAYAL
GONE WITH THE FACT THAT ONE HAS
OUT GROWN THE OTHER
THE FIGHTS, THE SILENCE, THE EMPTINESS
WE HOPE, WE TRY
WE WONDER, WE GIVE UP
THE UNBALANCED SCALE HAS LEFT ONE
FULL TO IT'S CAPACITY
GOODBYE TO SHALLOWNESS
GOODBYE TO SELF CENTEREDNESS
GOODBYE TO THE RELATIONSHIP
GOODBYE MY LOVE
