Poems Saying Bye

Generally, it's not easy to say "good-bye." Sometimes using poems to say "bye" are a way to convey emotion that words don't cover. One can always try injecting a poetic cliche to do the job, such as "Roses are red, violets are blue, saying 'good-bye' means I'll soon miss you." Throughout the ages, poets have relied on their prose to present their good-byes, such as William Shakespeare's, "Parting is such sweet sorrow." In closing, let's say our farewells with a quote from Emily Dickinson: "Parting is all we know of heaven and all we need to know of hell."
