It's hard to say goodbye.
The ache
and the emptyness of missing someone
knowing your not going to get them back
it all feels like the song "still"
you know,
the guy who wrote the song
about Vermont, and sticks?
yeah he's my favorite artist.
he wrote the song I just listened to,
and he made me think of you.
"I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye, it's like I'm still here with you"
except im not here with you,
and your with her, and I'm in a different state.
who knows how you are, I don't want to say goodbye,
it's hard to say goodbye
but we have to do it sometimes, it's not easy.
we say goodbye to our pets when they age older.
to family members who are no longer with us,
to loved ones,
to friends,
to partners,
to siblings.
to everyone around us.
sometimes we say goodbye,
and we don't know it's the last time we'll ever whisper a word to them again.
sometimes, it's hard to say goodbye,
but I said goodbye to you, for my sake.
and I still love you.
so it's hard to say goodbye,
to someone like you.
and I hope for your sake, you carry that with you, when you think of your sister.
