Good Bye Mary

Good-bye, Mary
My ground glass memories of you
Have at long last faded

Good-bye, my first love
We held each other close
As we stumbled into adulthood

Good-bye, dear muse
Daughter of the Gods, you inspired
Words, music and love

Good-bye, phantom of my dreams
I carried my wound heart
Like a splintered cross

Good-bye, thief of my heart
You will never more take love
That is no longer yours to take

Good-bye, Mary
This is the last verse I'll pen for you
This is the last tear I'll shed for you

Good-bye
