Saying Goodbye

Getting up and leaving everything I’ve ever known

Is the hardest part about saying goodbye

But I know in time I’ll be grateful

That I choose to leave

The life I once knew behind

It was holding me back

From being the person

I want to be

Saying goodbye

Isn’t always easy

Especially to the one’s that I love

Seeing tears run down their face

It almost makes me regret

That I choose to leave

But just seeing their pain

Makes me stronger

It will carry me

Through the next chapter

In my life

Saying goodbye

Isn’t always easy

But I’ll always remember

Where I came from

No matter how much money

I get or how successful I become

I’ll never forget

The place where I am from

Saying goodbye

Isn’t always easy

But at the end

Of my journey

At least

I’ll always have a place

To return too

And that’s home

Saying goodbye

Isn’t always easy
