In the middle between knowing you need to say goodbye and actually doing so.

I wish I could just say "please stay." and you would actually stay. but we all know it doesn't work that way.

I'm leaving soon too. tell me, which hurts most? the one who is leaving or the one who is left behind. In the end both needs to do the walking-away right?

I've always hated farewells. I cried over it secretly and without any sounds. sometimes, all we need to do is put on the expressionless face, hold on and let it out when we are alone.

After saying goodbye you started to be okay again. then comes the "hello" all over again. In time, you realized you hate the "hello" too because eventually it will all lead us to "goodbye"

and then you get used to it which is kinda cool too. it's either detachment or acceptance.
