Poem - Farewell

If I bid you farewell
Finally letting you go.
My tears camouflaged
Like a dried-up river’s flow.
If I unshackled your soul
Setting you, forever free
A new flight, a different world
A new nest; a different tree.
Horizons-blue, alluring
Flocks, calling out to you
Magpies, swans, sparrows
Blackbirds and cuckoo.
If I unshackled your soul
Setting you, forever free
Would you still remember?
Would you come back for me?
