Poetry: Good-bye

by Sarah Stennett

Created on: October 22, 2009

I made a mistake letting
You into my life years ago.
You lied, hurt me, twisted my words,
And drove me crazy.
Now you're back,
Wanting back into my life.
Why?
I made a mistake and
Opened the door to communication.
Only for a day, just to ask why,
Just to see if you'd lie.
You say people change.
You say this and
You say that.
Is any of it true?
I don't know because
I can't trust you, ever again.
Time to close the door and padlock it.
I made a mistake letting you
Into my life years ago and
I'm not making it again.
So take care and have a nice life
Just please don't try to get into mine.
I don't want your e-mail addresses.
I don't want your phone number.
I'm glad you say you're doing well
But the time has come to end
This charade before it
Gets out of hand again.
I made a mistake getting
Close to you years ago
And that is a mistake I
Don't want to make again.
Goodbye forever.
