This could be
The last time for hello's and goodbye's.
This could be
The last time I look into your lovely eyes.
This could be
The end of it all.
This could be
The last time your name I call.
This could be
a new phase.
This could be
the last time I see the sun raise.
This could be
a good thing.
This could be
The last time I hear the phone ring.
This could be
The final wish.
It could be
Our last kiss.
Cry for death no longer, child.
For you know not what it means.
Look to the heavens when upset, child.
And hear life's bell when it rings.

The author's comments:
I wrote this during church one day. I was pretty upset about my friend's recent suicide and I was thinking about it. This is how I felt from his point of view.
