Hanging on goodbyes : Sad Poetry

written by Poet : Twin Ringer


if you're to be leaving

go on and just go

you've been hanging on my back

and not in a good way

we started like sandpaper

still somehow we survived

now i wonder why we tried at all

your gnawing sarcasm

you're asking questions

you have no right to

maybe you think that's funny

maybe you think that's cute

it's what is shoving me away

making me wonder why i hang on to

emptiness

you seem to like tearing it down

and then buliding it back

only to wreck it again

let me retain some mystery

Lord knows you're not a detective

maybe i'm not trying to

spare your emotions

but then again

you never gave mine

a long thought

so if your car is starting

forgive me if i don't wave goodbye

sometimes i don't know

why we ever had a beginning

but i'm beginning to know
