Goodbyes

There are so many different kind of goodbyes out there in the world. Many of them are associated with a bad essence. But to me, not all goodbyes are such an awful thing. Goodbyes are endings but only in a physical sense. They don’t have the power to erase what happened. They don’t have the substance to wash away memories or abduct the those extraordinary experiences. Goodbyes are only what we give them the power to be.

But they are sooooo bittersweet. Simple as that.

Sometimes goodbyes means your days are filled with missing someone. Sometimes goodbyes leave your heart urning to be wanted again. Sometimes goodbyes means your nights are filled with insomnia and a head filled with wandering thoughts and what-ifs.

But sometimes goodbyes mean that you are lucky. Sometimes it means that you have parted ways with someone or something irreplaceably special in every way. Sometimes it means that your heart was touched by another heart in the most magnificent way. Sometimes you have to say goodbye to a person you thought you had more time with. Sometimes you have to say goodbye to a place you’ll never return to. Sometimes you have to say goodbye to who you are at this very moment in time knowing you will never see her again.

Goodbyes are endings.
But they don't end memories.

I will never forget the obnoxious belly laughs or the hugs, fitting together like puzzle pieces. I will never forget that crazy huge smile or the feeling I got when your eye met mine. I will never forget the beautiful moments spent at your house with your family for Sunday dinner.

I will never forget how that one person made me feel. I will never forget the moments I love or the moments I felt loved.

Goodbyes are endings but memories stay.
Feelings last.

Goodbyes are endings but moments...those loving enchanting moments they are never ending.

They are invincible.
