the last goodbye, by steppingfaintly Subscribe to rss feed for steppingfaintly

I wasn't ready for the last goodbye,
I never will be.
I never want to be.
The last time I saw her,
Was on a dreaded school day.
We laughed at break over the stupid,
Over-payed teachers.
Ate the crappy food,
In the canteen.
Then it was the weekend.
We hugged tight.
Clinging to each other.
Then that was our last goodbye.
I got to school.
It was a Monday.
Tired and dreary, I never heard the whispers.
The people pointing at me.
The sadness in their eyes.
I waited as usual,
In the spot like always.
Every day, we went there, 
To begin our day of torture.
But that Monday was special.
No one turned up at all.
Not Jasmine,
Not Hannah,
And not Brook.
I begrudgingly made my way to tutor.
Crossing the sea of people in the playground.
Then I knew.
Hannah and Jasmine.
Crying. crying and crying.

I couldn't do anything.
Just broke down.
Couldn't breathe.
Couldn't cry.
Couldn't stand.

I knew that I had,
Already had my finally goodbye.
The last goodbye between to friends...
