Not so Fond Farewell

Now I’m here

You go away

Save cruelty

For another day.

–

Badness gone

Far away

Save it for

Another stay.

–

Leave this place

Move along

Singing a

Different song.

–

There’s no need

To explain

As your words

Cause me pain.

–

Bid adieu

Say goodbye

Pack your bags

I won’t cry.

–

For, my truth

Is at hand

You’re in a

Distant land.

–

Now I’m free

From your hate

Peace without

A debate…

Don’t Walk Away, Run!!!

Crocheted Donut by Jenny Gallego

Your love was as satisfying as a crocheted donut for breakfast.

Your compassion was as deep and rich as a red solo cup.

Your passion was as fiery as the heart of a thousand year old glacier.

–

Your emotional abuse was as consistent as the phases of the moon.

Your disdain for me and anything I found remotely interesting was a death blow.

–

Taking all of these into consideration, I walked away and never looked back lest I be turned to stone…
