Farewell

It wasn't goodbye

Not yet anyway

But it feels so preordained, so natural

Like the matter of goodbye is as simple as breathing.

But its not.

This is not a love story

For love never hurts nor is it in pain

No. This is a story of a name

A name that echoes in the depths of the emptiness I once called myself

So many different things and yet...

I never knew there were so many ways to say goodbye in one 'Hello'
