Goodbye

My poem in honor of the Susu Project:

The city where I was born,
The city where I lived for long,
Is now the city that I leave.
Oh, my beautiful city,
The lovely city,
That I once called my home,
Is now not known.
My love for you is great,
But I leave you in pain.
I have locked the gates,
And have walked away.
I hope to see you again,
But it will never be the same.
Land of my birth,
Land that I called my own,
Is now not known.
I will come and go,
But my love for you will never go.
Oh, that city on a hill,
Filled with thrills.
Your streets I walked with friends and family.
The people I knew were so many,
But now I leave them with eyes that are teary.
All the memories I hold are slowly fading away.
I hope to see you again,
But it will never be the same.
Goodbye, the city from where I came, Goodbye.
