Simple Goodbye

by Lauren Waszkiewicz   Aug 10, 2006


Mutter a word
a simple good bye
something to hint that
theres a soul behind your eyes

just look away
with a distant stare
how hard's a goodbye
a simple way to show you care?

drop me off at this clinic
leave me here to die
forget me at this prison
don't bother to say goodbye

get up and turn
begin to walk away
now a goodbye
is what you'll never hear me say

This is a poem kinda based on the book 'cut'
only different b/c in cut the girl doesn't talk but in my poem its the mother. but what ever.

    Ha! Loved it. I think the only thing you can do for this is to use some puncuation. Capitalize things and us commas and periods. You know crap like that. :) But other than that, I loved it! I loved this part the best though :P
