Whisper Dawn - Good-Bye

one by one the lights go out
still you see everything all around
eyes not open, but heart split wide
this is how it is to see without your eyes.
Heart felt wrong when its done
how do you say good bye?
love does not stop
it lives on moves your eyes straight to your heart
this is how it feels knowing love will never die.
how do you let go
knowing you can never see their smile,
to hear their voice.....
letting them leave....you were never given a choice
just like that a moment is taken
your heart just stops knowing....
how do you say good bye?
never to hold them ever again
only when you close your eyes
will the image hold up
pain afloat, can not think
broke in two
knowing they have left you
gone above, with all your love
hurts more to look around
feel only these memories that can be found
the memory holds dear, close to your heart
wanting it to be real.
and now they tell you its time to let go
hurts so much within
a child so precious.......
How do you say good bye?
