goodnight, good luck, i'll see you soon

5:10 PM

goodbye tastes like great grandmother's vinegar and sits like anything eaten after midnight

it's the most harsh and cruel word God ever granted our delicate vocabularies

it was the last thing He ever told me


goodbye tastes like bad words and the soap you washed them out with
it's a third degree burn
it's a paralyzer
my eyes, they still burn
it's a paralyzer


we say goodbyes around here like every day is the 11th of september


we're dedicating days to be devastated


and we ask why we're so sad.

because he cried goodbye to his brother, because she cried goodbye to her mother, and while you cried goodbye to your lover,
he
had to write it
on a balloon.

so goodnight moon


goodnight room
goodnight cow jumping over the moon
goodnight nobody
and the red balloon


he'll tuck her in
he'll hold her tight
he'll kiss her cheek
for one last night


goodnight
good luck
i'll see you soon


adieu, adieu, to you, and you,


he'll close the door
she'll ask him to stay


"so long"


he says


"so long."





and then he will leave,
and then it will be,


"so long"


she says


"so long"
