Analysis of Saying Goodbye



Sometimes it’s hard to believe,
That certain things come to an end,
We never know what’s waiting for us out there,

What are the new challenges
New accomplishments
New people
New possibilities
That we’ll encounter soon,

Sometimes saying “goodbye” might seem the most hardest thing to do
But sometimes it’s saying “hello” again,

Letting go might be very hard,
Starting over is not easy either.
