There’s no right time to say goodbye.
Something that weighs you down, heavy on your shoulders,
tear upon your heart; won’t vanish on it’s own.
Feelings in the beginning haven’t stuck around.
Words we’ve both said seem to be forgotten.
Things we did don’t have much value anymore.
You and I just don’t add up anymore.

It’s not you. It’s not me. It’s us. Together.
There’s never a right time to say goodbye.
Unwanted, or not.It’s different now.
What you have in front of you…is disappearing with every breath you take.
No infatuation, no chemistry,nothing is left to be felt now.
Every feeling, every word, everything has been heard, said, and done.
There’s no more us.
There’s never a right time to say goodbye.
But, im letting go now and walking away.
The farthest I can be from you.

This was written about my best friend and her boyfriend. I love her so much and they had a bumpy relationship. Every girl can relate to this poem at some point in time.
