Don't let the chance pass you by

You have to let go and say your final good bye. You wish them well and start out on your own paths. You know it’s for the best but that doesn’t make it hurt any less. You sever the tie and close that chapter of your life. You put away the pictures. The things you’ve done and the places you’ve been together become vague in your mind. Their memory slowly starts to fad. Happiness shared, laughter together, battle scars and tears cried become forgotten. Slowly your heart and head start to push this person into the deep depths of your past. You can no longer bring their face to mind. Their voice a distant sound in the breeze. Birthdays, anniversaries, celebrations and holidays pass and you no longer think to stop and call. Life goes on and you’ve lost a little part of youself with out even knowing it. You no longer notice or feel that slight emptiness where they used to be. Days go by and they don’t pop into your mind at those random moments any more. Just a whisper in the back of your mind that you can’t quite hear. In the time line of your life a connection, a friendship has shriveled up and died. Gone forever but you know not to shed any tears for what you have lost.....

Someone who had been in my life for long time is gone and I hadn’t realized I’d already said my final goodbye. Is there anything worse than losing a friendship who’s roots began to grow when you were just a child.

I’d never want to see you unhappy,
I thought you’d want the same for me

Goodbye my almost love
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you
Can’t you just let me be?

So long my luckless happiness
My back is turned on you
I should have known you’d bring me heartache,
almost loves always do

And when you left
you told me you would never
ever forget these images the sweetest sadness in your eyes


Never miss the chance to tell someone in your life that you love them and what they mean to you because you don’t know if that will be your final goodbye.
