I have to say good-bye
and I don't want to
But she has to go
the pain
the confusion
this is not what she deserves

She is laughter
and love
Hospitality and
honor
She is my friend,
my sister,
my mentor

My life will be
emptier
My heart will be
fractured
but I know I can't
hold her back
and so I have to
say good-bye

  1. It feels like you are having to say goodbye to someone incredibly important to you. This fractured heart feeling is familiar to me.

  2. I read this with a sense that you need a hug--so I'm sending one through comments and will come find you soon in person.
