Time to say goodbye

Another poem which was written in the Moulin Rouge aftermath. Can also be done as a short performance piece looking at it again.

Time to say goodbye:

I'm sorry my love,
It's time to say goodbye.
Don't ask any questions -
Just accept it as it is.
What we had was good,
But all good must end
Sometime - staying with you
Is dangerous - for both of us!
Don't ask any questions,
Please accept it as it is.
There's a lot you don't understand
And there's too much to take in.
I can't tell you why,
Just go, please!
It's time to say goodbye,
I love you, but...
No, don't look at me like that!
You know what it does to me!
If I stay with you, it's instant death.
Don't ask any questions,
Just accept it as it is.
We'll be together soon,
But it's time to say goodbye my love -
However, come what may
It will all be over.
Don't ask any questions!
Just accept what must be.
