Poem 6: Good-bye

Good-bye what’s known
Hello brand-new
Good-bye old friend
Hello to you
I leave behind all that I know
To come back to what once was old
And live again in past been told
Where love is rich and life is bold
And family laughs and hugs to hold.

Good-bye my present
Pure and sweet
Good-bye my space
New time to meet
Looking back I can be sure
There will be memories grandeur
But I must bind up this allure
And think the future past’s best cure
For fixing things from as they were

Good-bye what’s known
Hello what was
Good-bye my now
Hello my love
Here past begins the story’s tide
The future is what past decides
This changing current I will ride;
I now am young, my old I hide;
Back to my past in rest abide.
