my last goodbye:
im sorry for everything, i truly am,
for being the burden i never could stand.
i held on too tight, i loved too much,
grasping for comfort, reaching for touch.
im sorry for panic, for the worry ive caused,
for the times ive broken, the moments ive paused.
for needing too deeply, for never being okay,
for never finding the strength to just stay.
i cant keep fighting, im so damn tired—
of waiting for hope thats never inspired.
if i hear "be patient" one more hollow time,
ill shatter, ill crumble, ill lose my mind.
you say it gets better, but it always feels the same,
a script you repeat with no weight to the claim.
let me let go, just let me fall—
im done with this battle, im done with it all.
i dont want your comfort, your good advice,
im drowning, im empty, i don’t need “itll be alright.”
ive heard it enough, i know all the lines,
and im tired of pretending ill make it in time.
you tell me i matter, that theres purpose in me,
but if im honest, its nothing i see.
dont say that you want me when we both know the truth—
ive been holding you back, im weighing down you.
so this is my favor, my final gift:
ill bow out quietly, ill cease to exist.
im sorry, i love you, im sorry again—
for being the anchor, for needing a friend.
its not what you wanted, not what you deserve,
to walk at my pace, to follow my curve.
so ill withdraw now, I’ll step away,
let you run free, while I fade to gray.
goodbye, my love, my dear, my light—
im sorry i couldnt stay in the fight.
this is goodbye, my quiet release,
ill slip from your world, ill finally find peace.
im sorry. for everything. truly.
