Goodbye Hurts

I can't explain how hard it is
to say goodbye,
but never again hello.

The words just slip through my lips,
I can't control the words I speak,
(around you I never can anyway)

With clouded minds
and puffy eyes
I slowly let you go.

But you'll never know how hard it is,
to say goodbye,
but not hello.

Some days I want to curl into a ball
Cry out your name and never let go
but I have a job to do

As important as you are to me,
as important as you were
the people we love the most
are the hardest to let go
