Say Goodbye

TO;
 be truly happy,
 you have sat thru sadness,
    TO;
 be sane
 you have entered the madness.

     IF;
 you feel the absence,
 you were once here,
     TO;
 truly understand;
 the facts need to be clear.

   IF;
 you believe in hate,
 you once knew love,
   TO;
 understand below, 
you must rise above.

   IF;
 your willing to give,
 you have had to take,
   IF;
 your open to learn,
 you're willing
 to make a mistake.

    IF;
 your ok in the midst of chaos,
 you have been at peace,
    IF;
 you hang on, 
you must practice the release.

    IF'
 it's worth living for;
 it's worth dying for.
    IF;
 you play the game,
 then settle the score.

    IF;
 you know truth, 
you have heard a lie,
   IF;
 you say hello,
 you must say goodbye…….
