Goodbye Girl
Some say they've seen her
 Others don't
 For she daunts a certain glow
 Hard to seek out
 But those ones who have seen her
 Tell her message
 And pass it on to the world
 
 It starts with
 The goodbye girl
 Seasons of song tell her tale
 Her spirit in the mountains,
 Love in the flower buds
 Blooming on a spring day
 Her fingers are the blades of grass
 Shoved deep in the soil
 Cut and bled down to nothing
 
 Her bones are the branches 
 On trees of willow
 Snapping savagely with a gust of wind
 Her voice is in the breeze
 That swims past your ear
 And tells you the story of her 
 Her eyes of the stars 
 Draw you closer and closer
 Until you see the light of her heart
 
 Her scent of lilies 
 Wafering to your nostrils
 Wraps around you like a chain
 Pulling you to her silky delight
 To see the world through her eyes
 Her tune of fury influences your steps
 And brings you to her chest
 Keeping you from lively breath
 
 Her melody plays on 
 Ringing in your mind telling you
 To play with her, she's lonely 
 Give her your own attention
 Sit on the grass, the palm of her hand
 Donate your last sparkle to her soul
 
 Hear the song of her shadowed voice
 Give in to the struggle
 She wants you to hear her worldly gossip
 And say hello to the goodbye girl
