Years of pain, finality in my goodbye

You said I was strong, I am weaker than you'd think

"I love you" I breathed, finding will to speak

"Goodbye" held my next breath

You never saw the difference between

"See you soon" and "Goodbye"

The finality the latter held

You never saw the hidden meaning behind my words

Just smiled and went on your way

Smiled and walked away

Goodbye my starshine in twilight

Goodbye my love, whispered finality

I meant goodbye for the last time

Until that casket is set before your eyes

You never realized the hidden meaning behind, goodbye
