Goodbye

At one point, I refused to say goodbye.
It is so final.
In my life it had been so final.

In my childhood I didn't understand it.
But now, I realize all I have said goodbye to.
My sunshine;
Someone I never wanted to say goodbye to.
Controllers;
People I never needed in the first place.
Followers;
People just don't fit in my life anymore.

But when we say goodbye, we also say hello.
Hello new life,
hello new perspective,
hello future,
hello world,
Goodbye past, I need you no longer.

Don't ask me why I've said goodbye.
Because I am letting go of why.
Ask only what I have said hello to.
"come what may" I will live.
Saying goodbye.
And hello.

    like...everything.
    it's too weird how we connect through this stuff.
    this is really a nice piece.

  2. I agree with you. It's a whole new perspective, isn't it?
    A whole new world; a whole new way of looking at things.
    Great work.
