Despised Goodbye's
I can always run away, move or hide,
but you know it is the word Goodbye that I despise.
Even though your going away causes pain to my soul.
Even when my lips tremble, eyes water and mind becomes as dark as coal,
I know I have to let you go.
I always knew I had to let you go,
whether the present or the future.
You have to chase those clouds and let your dreams grow.
As much as I want you to stop and stay more,
I want you to run out an explore.
Open each and every door.
So, with a slowly sinking heart,
and a cheery disguise,
You look right through me,
and know it is the word Goodbye that I despise.
