If you must go…
And follow your heart…
Leave this known life…
Seek the stars that illumine beyond…
If you must take flight…
And soar to your beckoning dreams…
Wander to far-flung and distant spheres…
Trail the paths that lead to your imaginings…
If you must rediscover your hollowed soul…
And meld with your deepest thoughts…
Embrace your truth and long forgotten hopes…
Seize the moments that shall lead to your paradise…
If you must close this portal…
And sever the bindings of old…
Surrender this, a fast becoming past…
Live the life you yearn and crave…
If you must go…
Know that there are hearts, souls and friends…
That share your joy and feel a certain ache…
Because you are adrift and gone from their midst…
If you must…
Farewell.
I bid you…
And wish you well.
