Hellos are easy .

Who are you ?

What you're getting yourself into ,

You will never know .

Are they two-faced ?

Will they hurt you ?

Hellos get easier once ,

you get the basic expressions .

Mouth , pull it's corners up gently ,

Cheeks , their muscles contracted .

They should move upwards .

Eyes , slightly closed .

That's a base for a smile .

Their mind , a minefield of thoughts ,

an arcade for dreams .

But who are you to judge them ?

All you did was say hello .

Goodbyes on the other hand ,

are the worst feeling ,

possible , imaginable .

You are saying goodbye ,

to someone you know ,

someone you knew .

To say goodbye ,

You burn a part of yourself ,

memories , be it scars .

You learn how to react to each goodbye ,

how to recieve ,

and how to give it .

I found it be easier ,

to hate someone as you let them go .

It's like an excuse .

" I hated them because _ , therefore I can let them go without guilt . "

It's something like telling yourself ,

" No , this wasn't the person I knew . "

when all the while you were the one who changed ,

as everyone stayed the same . . .

Hellos take practise ,

Goodbyes , experience .

I don't know how to explain this but ,

hellos are easy , because said person is unknown .

goodbyes are easy , when you make them unknown .
