This poem is about a man who changed my life. We were together for quite a while and then he left for the Marines. It explains how hard it was to say good bye.
This poem originally was published in Love Poems - Teenage Love Poems
Good-byes Are Harder Than Hellos
Hellos are hard, You don't know what to say, You would look at me, But I'd look the other way. I blushed every time I saw you, You talked to me every day, You smiled, and you laughed, But once again I looked away, Finally one day, You talked to me once more, And finally I got the courage, to say hi and not ignore. From that point on, We were together every day, Until you left me, and went far, far away. We had to say goodbye, They are harder than Hellos, But after a short time, I finally let you go. I know it will be hard, For both you and I, But whenever we get lonely, We can look up in the sky, And I will know that God, the Father, Is watching over you, And you will also know, That he's watching me, too. He'll bring us back together, Before too much time has passed, And we can be together, Once again, Once more, at Last. |

SamanthaThis poem was amazing. I'm sure many people have said how it reminds them of their relationships, but really it probably really does touch many people. I know it touched me, my boyfriend, who I love dearly, leaft for school and me being 3 years younger obviously had to stay behind. He's been gone almost two months and I miss him greatly. Thanks for writing this, it put a smile on my face.

EricaHey! This was a great poem. I really enjoyed it. your rhythm was very good. I'm kinda picky about poetry in the sense that the rhythm has to be just right or I don't like it. you did an excellent job of keeping the rhythm flowing smoothly. the words and meaning were awesome as well. but the thing I liked best was that you trusted in God to bring you to back together. I'm sure God will bless your relationship. just keep your eyes on Him and He will comfort you! Awesome poem! ~Erica~
-

AshleyI liked this poem a lot because it describes wuts goin on in my life too. When i first met tha man i been with for almost 2 years now, i was so shy and he would try to talk to me but i'd look tha other way and not talk to him and all that stuff, but i finally opened up to him. Now hes goin to Iraq n its jus so hard to say good bye to him cuz its been so long. But overall this poem is really good.
-
GracieWOW, this was an awesome poem, it really touched me, because I was like that with a guy. Then, I guess my "best friend" desided she liked him to. so she asked him out, he didn't answer for a long time. so that upset her, so she started cutting, and not eating, and throwing up. so he finily said yes to her, out of pitty, now its like this boy and me don't even know each other any more!so im praying God brings us back together for the right reasons!
-

-
brandywow, that poem actually made me cry. You see my bf from 4 years is leaving to go to the military in the future. We have plans to get married next year so that I can go live on base with him. He also wants to wait 4 years after high school before going into the military, he wants to go to the Marines. I am not sure what will happend with me and him. What I am sure of is that you are stronger than I am. I couldnt handle it if the guy of my life leaves. I cant even be away from him even for a day. I just wanted you to know that.
-

-
TeraysaMy boyfriend just left for Iraq today and I have to say that this poem really touched my heart. It actually freaked me out because that was basically what happened in our situation. We always used to see each other in the hallways in school and I had always liked him but tried to avoid the situation because I was intimidated. But he never gave up and kept calling and eventually I began to realize how amazing of a guy he was. We have been together for over 2 years now and I have been through everything with him right by my side. He has been in the marines for a little over a year now but this is his first time in Iraq so he's gonna be away a lot longer than all the other times and I wish I could just go with him. I would like to send him a copy of your poem if you don't mind and tell him how I found this online by another girl who's boyfriend is in the Marines too. It is so funny how it reminds me of us.

LaurenOuch. That's all I can say is Ouch. I am going through the same exact thing you were going through. I miss him so much, and I love him with all of my heart. We were introduced by a friend, and were kind of shy at first, but after a while, we were perfect for each other, and we spent almost every day together. We would walk all the way across town to meet one another, just to be together. Then he had to leave to the army. I was okay the first week, the second was tough, but It didn't really hit me until his best friend had his going away party (he was going to the army also), and Kevin wasn't there. I kept looking around for him, wondering where he was and when he was coming, but I finally realized. he wasn't. It broke my heart, and I haven't been the same since. But kudos to you, great poem. I feel the pain behind the words.
-
CookieThis poem was awesome and it all is true! Congratulations you have really touched my heart!
-
valeriethis poem is true because it reminds me of a time i had. when it was hard for me to greet the one i really liked. now he broke up with me and its been 8 months since we parted and its so hard for me to say "goodbye" i dont ever want to though.

We were gone get split up n-e way because they were building a new school and I had to go there. So in 9th grade he came back to our school. We stared back talking. I was so happy. Then we broke up because things weren't right at the time so he started to go with this other girl and so over the Christmas holiday we started to talk again. Then I found out he was moving again. It hurt me so bad. We were going to go back out too.

KittyThis poem is so AWESOME! My best friend's brother had to go to Iraq and fight for our country. I didn't even get to say good-bye because I was on Spring Break vacation when he left. It was terrible I couldn't sleep at night. Then finally he called his brother when I was over. He let me talk to him. I was so happy that he was okay and he'll be coming back in 6mths or sooner! I hope this war ends w/ Iraq I have already lost to many friends

Matti really like this poem coz i can realte to it coz my girlfriend just broke up with em 3 days ago coz she lives far away.

AngelicaThis poem meant a lot to me when i read it because it explains exacly what I am going through right now. My boyfriend and I have been together for about almost 5 years. We have been through good and bad times. Ever since I've met him he has been my boyfriend as well as my best friend. He has been there every time I needed to talk to someone. He makes me feel good and comfortable being around him and that is how I learned to LOVE HIM. Last month he told me he wanted to go to the Airforce. I was in a shock because I never expected that, but I now that by going over there it will help him better himself. Now I have to sacrify my feelings for what makes him happy. All I know is that I will miss him a lot and I do want be with him. If god wants us to spend the rest of our lives together he will keep us together for these coming 4 years and forever.

JoAnnaThis poem really touched my heart. My husband and I just got married and its really hard cause he just left on a business trip to Alabama for a month and its so hard to tell him good-bye. I called him and read your poem to him and as I was reading it i started to cry and that brought him to tears too. So everytime I get sad and miss him I read your poem. Thankyou you've made me feel so much better.
