To Say Goodbye

Folder: 
Posterity Early Bad Stuff

I keep holding on to the past
Keep holding on, make it last

Can't help this feeling
This feeling it won't end
Can't help this hoping
We'll be more than friends

 

To say goodbye and know it'll be forever
Say goodbye and know it'll last forever

It's tearing me up inside

.

The days become numb and white
The edges of the day smooth and flatten
As you try to focus on your breath
Your own life, your own way.

 

To say goodbye and know it'll be forever
To say goodbye and know it'll last forever.

It's tearing me up
Inside.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Found on a sheet of aged  browned paper, the kind out of a pad that you use to write letters on to people you wanted to keep in touch with...There is music to it which I hear as I type out the words.  To say goodbye and know it'll last forever...That type of sentiment has been my emotional baggage for years...I wish I had learned to let go sooner..I just didnt realize love was waiting for me.  I just had to get over that which went before.
