Most agree goodbye is the hardest part.
I feel that for me, the greetings and salutations always seem to linger just out of my reach, refusing to allow me to grasp the simple concept of introductions.
But hellos and goodbyes all represent change, and that is what most people fear. The change.
So it's even worse, if I finally find the courage to say hello to a new resolution, one that removes from my life a certain special person, to move on and say goodbye.
It's double the change in that one second of transition to a new year.
I don't think it'll be that easy, I'll still want to linger.
But it's for the best, that I say hello to a life where you leave.
