isnt it sad to say goodbye
when you look at someone
you know you will never see
ever again.
it is like one moment there was light,
then it is turned to dark
ruins of memories
a wasteland of sadness
you almost shift universes
as if that person and that time
have ceced to exist
and all that remains is you.
it can be as sad as a death
if not more
as if everything has been lost
sitting broken and gone
i have said goodbye to so many
much of whom are amazing people
who i credit for much of where i am in life
as it was not (all) done alone
so i will continue on
i will finish the assignment
and i will continue
to lose care about my life.
i do not ask that you cry for me.
i ask
remember that you should value every person
because you never know what will happen.
you never know
when it all goes up in smoke
and all that history
is dead and buried.
