Goodbye
I said
Because I am so done
But you will never know me now
You will never know the pain you made me feel
Because I am done fighting for
Something fate never let me have

Farewell
The friend of my dreams
The wounds you put on my heart
Will heal
But the scars will always remain
I won't forget the good times we never shared
I won't forget all the times
I was left alone
When all I wanted was you

So here goes nothing
And here comes everything
But I am ready for this change
Because the pain I have felt
Was never worth it

I am still alone
I am still lost
And that's okay for now
Because with time
Maybe I can grow to love again

And a small part of my heart is saved just for you
So I will always remember how I have been changed.
And it holds a small thread of hope
That maybe things could have been different

But I refuse to worry
And I refuse to care
Because that has gotten me nowhere
Except hurt and afraid

So this is me
Saying goodbye
To the thing I longed for most
And the thing I now have given up
But they always say
You only know you loved them when you let them go.
But sometimes
Letting go is the best thing you can do.
