Like a diamond

I visit you one last time.
You shake your head in defeat,
"You're leaving us again."
As much as it hurts you,
I know in my heart you understand,
You're forgiving that way.
What can I do, this life I must follow
And my feet on this road they travel,
Sometimes closer, sometimes further
A hope that things will settle for the best.
As I leave, I look behind me several times.
Once for you,
Twice for me,
Thrice to remember,
Four to never forget.
