the end. {not a poem}

There is a song I love
someone singing of a girl
“She hates the sound that goodbyes make”, he says of her
I can deeply relate.
A goodbye is an ending
(the worst kind of ending there is)
Goodbyes eat at the hearts of even the strongest people
even if the person they miss isn’t gone long.
“Endings are sad”
everyone always says
“Endings are bad”;
& I can understand why it is said.
Once someone is
a part of your life for so long,
even a short time without them
makes it like a piece of you left when they did.
So, basically
endings suck. (sorry, mom)
Goodbyes are awful,
we can all agree.
However, there is one ending
I look forward to always
does that sound strange?
Let me explain.
This ending is rather a feeling that I get
when in your arms you hug me tight
this is the ending I most look forward to –
I simply call it: the end of missing you.
