Bye-Bye

I am standing under a tree
Its autumn and my dreams are setting free,
The rustling of leaves underneath my feet
Brings back the memories of you and me,
When we would wander in the misty alleyways
Paddling our cycles, making way through the densely forests

The sky that is so blue
Had been the centre of attraction for me and you,
We would peer out of the window when the clouds were dark and the shadows mellow
We would stroll away and laugh and roll like a 10 year old,
The rain would come and soak us away
And sometimes I feel the drizzle thumping my head even today,

I saw your face while reading through the lines of those crispy pages
Contained in the books which told the stories of ages,
Glancing at your pictures tucked in my scrapbook
I scrubbed the tears streaming down my cheeks,
The memories flashback and I piece together the rest
I can see, I miss you, something I had never confessed!

There were times when I found it hard to carry on
You too walked away and I had no shoulder to cry on,
The dreams of foregone times shattered
We chose our separate ways and silently departed,
But today as I take a trip down the memory lane
I realize how hard I had to fight in order to maintain
The bond of friendship that we couldn’t sustain,
I guess it really was the time to say good-bye
Since I couldn’t have stopped you thereby
here am I wishing you forever bye-bye!
