“Stay with me,” he begged in the final storm of
Autumn regret.
His eyes rained dismay
While his heart thundered protest.
“It’s not so simple anymore!” she shouted from the cloud
Carrying her away.
He falls to the floor and cries,
“Why oh why?”
Suitcase in hand, she watches from the shifting sky and she sings,
“Oh, babe, I wish I could stay.
But maybe my mistake
Was trying to live this way.
Don’t think that I don’t love you
And don’t say that I was untrue.
Oh, babe, please just forget me…
For now.
There’s really nothing left of us
But I won’t wave to the pieces of the love
I once wholly cherished.
Because I’m not really leaving your beautiful life
And this isn’t really goodbye
You know as well as I,
It’s only…
Goodnight.”
Author notes
trying to figure some stuff out.
Title ideas? I don't like mine.

"His eyes rained dismay
While his heart thundered protest."
"“It’s not so simple anymore!” she shouted from the cloud
Carrying her away.
He falls to the floor and cries,
“Why oh why?” "
"But maybe my mistake
Was trying to live this way."
"Don’t think that I don’t love you
And don’t say that I was untrue."
"Because I’m not really leaving your beautiful life"
"And this isn’t really goodbye
You know as well as I,
It’s only…
Goodnight.”
strong ending
