You Got This

Nothing last forever and I'm sorry i'm the one that has to let you know
We tried everything in our power to keep you but we have to let you go
When one door closes another one opens, I believe 
Trust me when I say no one here wants to see you leave
I hope you understand as I try to figure out the right words to say
We are losing business and right now we are unable to pay 
I hope you gained enough experience to go out and grow
When a spot opens you will be the called, right now business is slow 
You have demonstrated the ability to problem solve and be strong 
Just know great people such as yourself never stays down for long
Please keep in touch and let us know about your upcoming success 
Just know you have what it takes and you were one of the best

So upbeat and optimistic, I truly wish a person in this situation could feel this great about having to go. It would be nice if the person on the other end included an extra little bonus to tide them over. You make it sound like a happy time, which works for me.
