Poem - Goodbye, why? (Separation)

It is time for me to say goodbye,
It is time for me to know the reasons why.

Why face the world alone, I ask,
This journey, you answer, was always your task.

Be happy dear one, you push me away,
And with tears, fear and anguish I find reasons to stay.

Push me away, yet you find the strength for,
To love me clearly required much more.

Memories will still bring me warmth and smiles,
Once in a while maybe my number, subconsciously, you shall dial.

I ask you again, is this all worth your while?
And yet I know as the winter sets in and in my darkest hour I will still look for you in the aisle.

Die we must, each day, little by little;
Yet the illusion of a life we create gives us hope to survive, clearly essential.

It is time for me to say goodbye,
It is time to accept I will never know the reasons why.
