Departure

Farewell, old room
I will be leaving you soon,
I am going away
And only memories shall remain...

My spirit here
Has nearly disappeared,
I no longer belong
When most of me has gone
To her..

You understand
I have given her my hand
And my heart which must follow
Shall part us tomorrow...

You will not be alone
Poor walls, though I will fade,
From sight, be not dismayed,
For I am going home...
