Okey-dokey, here's the "sequel" to my "Goodbye" poem I posted a few days ago. They were written seperately, though "Hello" was based on "Goodbye", and if they are presented together (as I am about to do), they rhyme. Though "Goodbye" was written first (and is actually much better), logic tells us that "Hello" comes first, so that is how I will write them. I now present, together again for the first time:

HELLO/GOODBYE

Hello
My life begins now, my face aglow
Filled with love, and the chance to show it
To those that make my heart feel good
The joy I have makes it understood
I'm truly glad to be alive

Goodbye
My time is done here, and now I cry
I had some fun here, yet wonder why
The joy I had here has gone away
I feel so sad here, and every day
I wish the end would soon arrive
