One Hard Word

We don't want our love ones to hue and cry
Thus, Everytime we contrive to survive
From the inside out, We must give the eye
Because... one hard word to say is goodbye

Good evening dear Olive_eloi. :) Just found your new 'creation'. well written quatrain with catchy rhyme. When it's time to say goodbye we try to be brave and hide what feelings there are within. It does not pay to make it any harder than it already is!! be seeing you :) // paul
