Goodbye
Why are you here?
You are supposed to be on a plane
Far away from here,
Far away from me
But you have returned
Why?
Because of me?
Because you want to say sorry?
Don’t.
I do not want nor do I need and apology from you
You left me
Without any notice
Without anything as little as a goodbye
And now you want me to forgive you?
How can you leave with no explanation
And come back with one?
Not a day has gone by
That I haven’t cried over you
Just praying you would come back
For me
Did you even care?
Of course not
I fell so hard for you
And you don’t even realize what you have done to me
But it is okay
I am okay
I have cried and I have healed
And I have learned to love again
You want me to forgive you?
I can do that
But I can also forget you
Now I ask that you forgive me
Because this is my farewell to you:
I do not want to think about you
I do not want to hear about you
And I never want to see you
You coming here was a mistake
Goodbye, Melchi
