Quiet Farewell

Today I said goodbye to you
In a quiet moment
In the solitude
of my own space
Tears cascading down my face

You may not know
You didn’t hear or see
But then
You never really did

Your face was turned away
Nothing unusual about that
Not for you

You may try to say hello again
And I won’t be unkind
But neither will I be had
By someone who cannot hear
the sound of love
and the sound of goodbye.
