when it’s time to say goodbye, you just say it.
no more hesitations, no more second-thoughts, no more if’s, but’s or if ever’s. the more you prolong it the more it digs its claws deeper into the soil of your heart and you can never let go.
how you say it wouldn’t really matter because the person receiving it has already begun to disintegrate into a tiny million pieces since you utter the word ‘goodbye’.
don’t ever resent the one who says goodbye because some way or the other, in some other unseen universe, it is always for your own good.
how it fits into the larger picture, from the cubist’s perspective, will perpetually be unknown to you until that day you hold another piece in your hand and you begin to find again where it must go.
it will never be easy.
nurse the pain, never ignore the hurt, isolate yourself if you must, but pick up the pieces. these will come in handy when the time comes.
be strong. the source of strength may appear to have vanished, but there are your friends, your family, and always Him.
the world will continue to spin, the sun to rise and the moon to shine, and blood to flow.
when it’s time to say goodbye, you just say it.
