A Simple Goodbye
It's really weird how talk is cheap and yet words mean so much.
When i was a little girl, i would always stand at the door, bidding farewell to my dad until the very last second that he could be seen. I still do that to this day.
I have always taken goodbye's very seriously simply because i believe that people are precious and you never know what can happen between the time you part with them and the time you see them again.
Sometimes i fail to understand how it is that people can make goodbye's seem so insignificant, and yet i have to constantly remind myself that i probably take this more seriously than others do...or maybe they just don't show it as much as i do. I suppose the depth of the word isn't for everyone. Perhaps it just means more to me than it does to other people...and i have no regrets.
When close friends leave, whether for a short period of time or for a longer duration, whether i see them the next day or the next year, i always try to make sure that i leave them with a goodbye...at least a simple goodbye. To me it's not too difficult to say and definately not too difficult to mean; and yet, it has an everlasting meaning. All it takes is a simple goodbye.

goodbyes are never easy. i just had to say goodbye to someone and it was horrible. we just gotta learn that saying goodbye isn't all that big a deal. it's more appropriate and more comforting to hear/say, 'see you soon.' yes, i much prefer that.
Good bye's...... words that i dread to hear or to say.
More so when your're parting with someone your have been emotionally attached.
Do we take it for granted? More often then not, yes.
Then we come to a realisation that we may not meet that person for some time, or for a long time.
Is it to late then ? I ponder immeasurably deep in chasm,depth and void for an answer.
Weird indeed when talk is cheap yet words mean so much.
