please dont try so hard to say goodbye

goodbye is a curse word you hear too often. its left a lonely taste in your mouth that a million 'hellos' cant rinse out. you started saying goodbye before you let anyone close enough for their exit to matter. but im not going anywhere and your goodbye means nothing at all. i know youve been hurt but im not them. im not leaving. you can push and walk away but i will stand wherever you decide to leave me...i wont move so you dont lose me. i want to make you see that life isnt about everyone leaving and this loneliness youve dwelt in doesnt have to consume you. im here to free you from it. dont be stubborn. open up your heart to see, to feel, lifes not only about endings. your heart can tell me goodbye but mine wont say it back, my back will never face you. ill always be here to catch you even when you tell me no. im not going and eventually youll stop trying to make me leave. you will stop saying goodbye, i promise. this time will be different. none of these goodbyes were me.
