I must not turn back
I must not fall apart
I must not remember how much
I don't want to say goodbye
I'll somehow manage
To keep my heart frozen and numb
Since I'm not ready to cry
To mourn, to feel
But I know
I don't know how
To pretend
I can't fake it much longer
Soon I'll be forced to admit
My heart wasn't really numbed
Even though my tears
Were frozen in place
There is no point
In denying
The inevitable
So I'll let it come
Goodbye
