‘(Leaving)’



Light and quiet
Soft and sweet
You gently whisper
“Goodnight.”
As you release
My hand
And walk away,
I begin to cry.
“Please don’t go”
You keep on walking,
Walking, not looking back.
I miss you,
I need you,
“Please come back.”

    nice

    Short and to the point. I like the quotation part. It shows the progression of this person leaving the subject of the poem

    This is beautiful.
    Short, sweet and simple = exactly the way poetry should be nowadays.
    Perfect!

    Mm...this was actually rather neat. It was short (as the last one I read)
    I'm thinking that there is a deeper meaning than just the, "Mom, there is a monster under my bed, I'm afraid, please stay with me." sort of thing. Am I correct?
