Sometimes
it's hard
to say goodbye
so we
don't even try.
We just
ignore the task
not talking
or some such,
just
not talking
very much.
Until finally
not at all,
we just let
the speaking stall.
No one mentions
letting go
goodbye just happens
even so
Days and weeks
of silent fears
then the words
give way to tears
no one says it
in a formal way
finally
comes the day
Without
anyone to say
good-bye~

Yup. Been there, done that. This is a little "belter" as we say here (or a "cracker" if you prefer.)

This is so true to life. Love the background btw, it fits the poem perfectly.

totally sound and hitting a point, i am speechless
Speechless I am because these words are totally correct and you wrote them in a way reminding me of so innumerable instances in which speech was dropped and gave way to silent tears before and after.
you conveyed the feelings in few words.
beautiful
