Goodbye

Saying goodbye is hard.

No one tells you how hard it can be.

Whether it's farewell to someone not here or goodbye to someone who is, it all feels like pain.

The pain is physical.

Mental.

Gut-wrenching.

Heartbreaking.

Life goes on? Does it? Yes but it's changed forever.

Time's a healer? This pain can't be healed so time can tick tock away forever and I'll still cry.

I don't like goodbye.

Goodbye is hard.

Goodbye is pain.

We need a new word.

See you later? But will I? Depends on your beliefs.

Adios? Farewell? Cheerio? Nothing?

It all means the same thing.

So goodbye it is and hard it has to be.
