i wont say them

ive said them too much

every time i do, someone leaves, and sometimes, they don't come back.

i dont want you to leave

you cant leave

so instead of a goodbye, ill say a hello

"i love you"

"see you tomorrow"

"be safe"

because those guarantee youll be back

so i wont say goodbyes

i don't think i could anymore 

not after you 

"i love you"
