Goodbye Vibes

Ashley Gravett
1 min readJan 13, 2018

it was when you said goodbye
that I started to cry
overwhelmed, not exactly sure why
didn’t matter you were only
going to be gone a few hours
Do you want me to stay?
YES!
My heart screamed into the void
No… brain helped mouth form the word
it isn’t fair how often I tell my heart no
it wasn’t fair to ask him to stay
what I mean to say
is that sometimes lonely
is necessary
so long as lonely is temporary
and isn’t most everything?
some things just last a little longer
than others
that’s all
forever is a funny concept
