No More Goodbyes

Since you left

I know not

How to say goodbye

To anyone

Or anything. 

I just leave 

Sometimes I cry

Three tears under the red light. 

“Don’t cry,” they say

But tears fall anyway

Replacing the nothingness

I usually feel

When I leave

When they leave. 

The tears fill the void 

For a few moments 

They remind me I am still here

In this world. 

That’s all the goodbye I can do

Since you left. 

Three tears

If I am lucky.
