Reasons

For years to come

I'll remember your name

Recalling your eyes

And the way you taste

I won't forget

The way we danced

Or the goofy jokes

That made me laugh

I'll cherish the moments

You made me smile

And how the look in your eyes

Made it worth while

But all good things

Must come to a close

Leaving the memories

Lingering in the past

I just wish

This feeling would pass

So please forgive

My drastic measures

I guess I've realized

Dreams don't last forever

Hopefully you understand

Why I said "goodbye"

If it's any consolation

Saying it killed me inside

Really strong emotions expressed in an even stronger writing. There's a feeling of sorrow mixed with that of inevitable truth. The last line conveyed so very much. It summed up the whole of the poem in such a beautiful way

I like it too..
Many emotions were conveyed.. from happiness to tragic loss...

And I love how you have such a direct style but somehow such pretty language..

Well done.

This is real life to me. An aspect covered and revealed with gentleness and consideration. I love the way 'goofy' jumps out so unexpectantly.
I like that it covers truthful things - like laughter and smiles.
Tender and true.

Whew!
Strong.
I usually don't much care for rhyme, but I think you rhyming has some strong redemptive facets.
Incidentally, just because you've experienced only 'all good things ending', this does not make it a law of the universe. Only if you part from the Love Who Walks can you say that. Then it is true only for you.
Have you made that error? I don't think so. A son, for instance, will be carrying a portion of your dreams forward.
This poem IS evocative.
