Goodbye

Once I thought

All goodbyes were hard

That it was impossible to let go.

When I did

It caused such pain,

And my heart was screaming, “No”!

But now I see

That I was wrong,

Goodbyes don’t always hurt.

What you must

Tell goodbye

Might make you feel like dirt.

Once I thought

All goodbyes were hard

But now I see they revive.

To say Goodbye

To hurtful things

We can begin to live our lives.
