A new hope

Saying goodbye.
Sometimes easily done.
Most of the time hard.
The idea of saying it to you makes me shake.
Soul shattered with sorrow.
That I didn't say goodbye, at first.
Then a thought drove it deeper.
I never told you that I love you.
Knowing that you knew I meant it.
That I could see your face when I told you.
As this realization flooded my soul,
other beautiful people throughout my life flashed before my minds eye.
My entire body now flooded with an overwhelming sense of sorrow and gratitude.
Making me feel more alive than I've felt in years.
I want you to know that, although our paths might seem separate, I will always remember you.
These memories will always fill my soul with light.
I will forever carry hope that we will meet again.

With Love,

Jon Archibald
