So its Time to Say Goodbye

I’m done with you

Those were his last words

As he tore off into the night

 

His tires screeching

The engine roaring

In that red Olds

 

Never to return

My calls

Or to even say a proper goodbye

 

Now I’m left to

Fill in the blanks

Of what I could have done

 

I watched those taillights

As he drove away

Until I could no longer see them

 

My only wish

Is that he take care of himself

Get his life cleaned up

 

Maybe…

Just maybe…

One day I’ll see him again

[PaperHearts]

Aww, nice write! I really liked the fact that you seemed to write this with your whole heart, as it was that genuine honesty that made it such a relatable poem. I liked the amount of detail that you put into describing the scene, as I was able to picture the whole situation in my head. There were a couple mistakes in the second to last stanza, but other than that, this was a really well-written poem. Nice work,
