Saying good is the hardest thing to do.

Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye?

Yes I love her. I love her more than anything else in this world and there is nothing that I would like better than to hold on to her forever. But I know it’s not for the best. So no matter how much my heart is going to break, I’ve got to let her go so she can know just how much I love her. Maybe if I’m lucky, she’ll come back, but if not, I can make it through this.

True love doesn’t have a happy ending, because true love never ends. Letting go is one way of saying I love you.

If saying goodbye hurts so much, why do we say goodbye? Because it hurts so much more to keep holding on to something that isn’t there. Like you’re hanging off a ledge and someone is jumping up and down on your hands but you still can’t let go. Like when you’re little and you’re being tickled…you shout for it to stop because it’s torture, but then you go back for more, because somehow being tickled makes you feel safe and special. Holding on is like that…but the torture is painful…and it doesn’t make you smile. That’s why we’re supposed to say goodbye. That’s why we’re meant to let go.

Saying goodbye doesn’t mean anything. It’s the time we spent together that matters, not how we left it.

Oftentimes we say goodbye to the person we love without wanting to. Though that doesn’t mean that we’ve stopped loving them or we’ve stopped to care. Sometimes goodbye is a painful way to say I love you.

I knew that this moment would come in time. That I’d have to let go and watch you fly. I know you’re coming back so why am I dying inside? Are you searching for words that you can’t find? Trying to hide your emotions but eyes don’t lie. Guess there’s no easy way to say goodbye.

Don’t want to leave, but we both know sometimes it’s better to go. Somehow I know we’ll meet again, not sure quite where and I don’t know just when you’re in my heart, so until then, smile, don’t want to cry saying goodbye.

I’ve learned that goodbyes will always hurt, pictures never replace having been there, memories, good or bad, will bring tears and words can never replace feelings.

This is our last goodbye…it’s over, just hear this and then I’ll go: you gave me more to live for than you’ll ever know.
