Written at a time when my life was hard, and it seemed like it wasn’t going to get easier any time soon.
If it were easy to say goodbye to a friend you’ve known forever
If it were easier to say goodbye to a friend that wasn’t there when you needed them
If it were easy to diagnose problems with our friendship sooner
If it I knew it was going to hurt this so bad, would things have ended sooner
If it were easy to let go, I think to myself should I have known it was going to end
If it were easy to let go, of the things that I thought were so important
If it were easy to let go, of the memories I thought would live forever
If it were easy to let go, of the times of joy we shared
It’s never easy to let go of a friendship
It’s never easy to move on when it feels like you’re stuck in the past
It’s never easy to try and heal alone
It’s never easy to move past, so you can focus on the future
If it were as easy as saying goodbye, should I have seen it sooner
If it were as easy as deleting you from my contacts, should we never connect again
If it came down to deleting your picture from my phone, would it make it sting less
If it came down to making sure that we were over, and deleting all memories that came up
