How do you say goodbye
When you have no reason why?
How do you tell him, “Please just go,”
When he is the only love you know?
How do you follow from the start
When what you’re following is a broken heart?
How do you speak the thoughts inside
When your voice is cracked by tears you’ve cried?
How do you breathe when your love is gone?
How do you smile when you can’t go on?
