The Goodbyes which I had to say,
The goodbyes which they never understood.
Watching them grow stronger in their next one.
I feel tinges occasionally.
Maybe mine would come soon.
Visually how things would have been,
With me replacing those shoes,
I might have been a Cinderella now,
With those shiny white heels.
And there my prince charming intertwining our fingers tightly.
Sometimes people say,
Certain happiness are yours to go for.
Certain goodbyes should not be said too early.
And I just had to look at them in the eyes,
With mine being glassy in reflection.
And say.
I can't tell you the reasons why,
But I know,
I was not the one.
And so goodbyes it was.
The correct path for me and you.
For the better world,
For you.
