Goodbye

Goodbyes are unique things. Sometimes you're relieved after one, sometimes you cry. I've experienced every emotion in between before and after a goodbye to people.


Goodbye. Take the two words apart and it says good bye. Does that mean bye for good? Or was it a good, as in awesome/great bye? You could take it either way when you are in different situations and with different people. Some people never allow themselves to say goodbye because they don't want to be away from people. It's always "see you later!" I personally never really think about it when I say goodbye. I assume i will see them soon. But sometimes that doesn't happen. Life is so unexpected sometimes. We take for granted a lot of the time. I know I do.


Goodbye to a loved one is always very difficult. It personally takes me a while until I realize they're never going to be seen by anyone else on the earth ever again. It is definitely heart breaking. But in time, the heart heals and you move onto being happy and living life like you're supposed to.


Another hard goodbye is relationships. I've had my fair share of them. You say goodbye and think life will be the same exact way as it was however many months ago it was, but you're sorely mistaken. Some guys never say a proper goodbye others like to have the last word. Others try so hard to pretend you were never a significant part of theirs or your life.


I never enjoy having to say goodbye to anyone, especially that special someone. I don't want to grab hold to the fact that our relationship isn't there anymore and that I have to find someone else to spend my time with. Or just living my life as one person and not two.


When goodbyes come along unexpectedly, you go into shock. Like two weeks ago a tornado destroyed my hometown. I grew up in this town. This town is filled with my childhood. I never thought something so unbelievable could happen here. We're a small town. We're looked over. But now we're on national news and being talked about all over the country. It's unreal and I never said a proper goodbye to Ringgold.


I need to start realizing my life is going to be full of goodbyes. One could be around the corner. Some could be standing there, waiting for me to realize what's happening. I just need to open my eyes and let everything fall into place. (: MaggieMae909 ♥
