Farewell

Quote

Is every farewell a new beginning?

Or is it a farewell that will never come again?

Is it opening a spotlessly white page?

Is it a signature that erases beautiful memories and joys?


Does it bring a new light of hope to life?

Or does it also extinguish our existing days?

Is it holding on to a branch despite the pain?

Is it clinging to a branch that has already broken?


Is it that our tears will never flow again?

Or is it that they will flow without ever stopping?

Is it embracing the new world tightly?

Is it adjusting to a world worse than the one before?


Let me tell you what farewell is.

It is loving someone but never receiving their love in return.

It is longing for someone but never being able to hold them.

And farewell is stopping the heartbeat of two hearts at the same moment.
