Written by luna_rin, "My last goodbye" is a short, plain-spoken farewell to someone who is no longer in the speaker's life. A year has passed, and the speaker looks back on it honestly: there were ups and downs, but they got through it without that person. The word "Finally" at the start suggests this goodbye has been a long time coming.

The speaker feels a mix of relief and lingering ache. "I'm okay now" is said with some confidence, yet it's quickly followed by "I still dwell on the past," as if the speaker is admitting that healing isn't tidy. The mood is quiet, calm and a little bittersweet rather than angry. The final word, "Goodbye," is set apart on its own line and indented, which gives it weight. It feels like a deep breath before letting go, a moment where the speaker finally closes a door they've been standing near for a long time.

Cheery blossome

I am like the cherry blossom that come in spring for a few weeks. I am the petals that fall and kisses your cheek. while I fall silently without you hearing me. I'll say silent till next year till I can't see you anymore
