The Saddest Farewell


Ours shall be the saddest farewell

When we two must part

I will not want to let you go

For it will surely break my heart

But go, farewell I know you must

For now you cannot stay

But hope of your return one day

In that I must place my trust

But for now you must leave me

Alone with my tears

As I watch you walk away

A little wave and a silent prayer

That our time apart shall pass

But first we shall share the closest embrace

And the sweetest kiss to last ...
