she's not coming back


she's not coming back she wisperes to her self as she pushes her suitcasedown that empty road. wondering if she made the right decision to leave never looking back hurt but accepting she diserved better and she didnt diserve yhe hurt and disrespect others caused her wondering why her was she what was wrong,was she always the problem,she kept walking wondering why the road was so long, so empty,so lonely dark and empty no cars in sight just her and her suitcase,suddenly she saw a light so beautiful thinking its an illusion siddenly  lights flash before her eyes she see's a body laying on a road filled with people and police cars, its her body she snaps back relizing she died that night she never made it far she has been dead for a week thatlong road was her walking to the after life her 7 minutes flashing before her eyes her past,her present,no future tears fell from er eyes but she smiled waved goodybe and walked towards the light accepting she ddidnt have a place on earch but she had a place waiting for her and as she smiled and teared down the road she meant it when she said she's not comingback.
