Good in Goodbye

Walking around London made me remember all the good and bad times I had here as a teenager. I never thought that 10 years after I left and had this need to never come back, I would actually be here traveling down these familiar streets. As I passed my favorite restaurant I went to constantly, I heard a familiar laugh that always made my stomach flutter; I turned and stopped dead in my tracks. You looked happier than I have ever seen you; you had your little girl up on your shoulders while your wife was in front of the both of you trying to capture the moment. Those crystal eyes of blue that I could spot a mile away was one of the best traits that you passed on down to your daughter. You looked happy, it made me reminisce on those memories of you and I, when we were happy. Times been sweet to you, it made me think of how everything went wrong between us.

I knew I would see you again, it was only a matter of time but I never knew I would feel this bittersweet about it. Don’t get me wrong, I am happy, I found someone who makes me really happy. I guess I just understand that we both went down separate roads and I know I am still holding onto you and our memories, thank god that I didn’t get what I believe that I deserve. Goodbye was one of the hardest things I have ever had to say to you but it made us both strong. You were my first love, so as bad as it was and as bad as it hurt, I will never forget out time together and I definitely will not regret the things that happened. It just took me seeing you happy to be able to let go of you, it is about time for me to move on

I guess I am finally starting to see the reason why, now I know that there is good in goodbye.
