Farewell My Friend
It was beautiful as long as it lasted
The journey of my life.
I have no regrets whatsoever
save the pain I'll leave behind.
Those dear hearts who love and care...
And the strings pulling at the heart and soul...
The strong arms that held me up
When my own strength let me down.
At every turning of my life
I came across good friends,
Friends who stood by me,
Even when the time raced me by.
Farewell, farewell my friends
I smile and bid you goodbye.
No, shed no tears for I need them not
All I need is your smile.
If you feel sad do think of me
for that's what I'll like
when you live in the hearts
of those you love, remember then
you never die.

Whether you have experienced a break up

Move on and let go.
Life can be joyful and rewarding again.

and with focused intent and good fortune,
find an ample measure of my own joy.

It turns what we have into enough, and more.

Gratitude makes sense of our past,
brings peace for today,
and creates a vision for tomorrow.
