When Hello Means Goodbye

When Hello Means Goodbye

It’s always difficult to lose something you can’t replace, and accept the fact that it’s probably gone forever. It’s much like friends, they’re difficult to find and replace. One small fight could immediately lead to a big one, resulting to a tragic end, with no way out. You think everything would be fine, that it won’t affect you at all, and that you don’t even care you lost them, but will you think the same in 10 years time?

It’s true that friends come and go, and it’s also true that true friends are hard to find, but sometimes maybe change is good. It’s not so simple to move on from losing a friend; the guilt, the desperation for forgiveness, and most of all, the small seed of hatred growing inside you. Is it not enough to say “I’m sorry”? Sometimes you think to yourself ‘Maybe I’m the one to blame or maybe we’re the same, but either way it’s a shame that it had to be this way.’ You hate yourself for letting it pass by, but can’t do anything. The worst part is that no matter how much you tell yourself you’re wrong, it doesn’t make a difference, if the person whom you’ve hurt hasn’t forgiven you, the guilt and hatred continues to sprout inside you. Would you be better off just saying ‘Goodbye’?
