Goodbye

I could have slit my wrists
and let you
flow out of my system.
I could have pierced my eyes
with needles
Where you’re frozen in time.

I could have slashed every inch
of this cadaver
you scribbled your name on.
I could have burst
my brains open
and burn your memories down.

I could have ripped
my heart apart
still waiting for you
to come by.

But all I did was wipe my tears
And say goodbye.
