Goodbyes come easy
When we don’t care
When there’s no reason to worry
This may be the last time
We never know, really
When goodbyes may be final
Last words, smiles, handshakes, hugs, kisses
Connecting two souls who’ve touched
Will we get another chance—
To greet each other again?
Odds lessen as we grow older
As the years behind us outnumber those ahead
All the more reason—
Make the most of each moment
Come rain or shine
Celebrate those we love, those forever touching our lives
