Love Poem: I Said My Goodbyes

I Said My Goodbyes

I said my goodbyes to you that day long  ago.
I grieved for the loss  of someone I loved  so.
For so many years I journeyed on
A path with no beginning or end,
Seeking  a reason why our journey so soon had  to end. 
What really was the reason you had to go away?
Maybe it would be better if you just didn't say.
 Should  I leave you alone with your memories,
Maybe you'll feel the hurt and sorrow these  twenty years have
Given me
We once  had  dreams of a bright  future for you and me,
Then you left and all was left was only  memories
 And now you are standing here before me
Promising  this time it will be different  
This  time you'll stay with me
