Good Riddance
October 7, 2012
Good riddance to you,
Your immoral and cruel jokes,
Will harm me no more.
Your callousness, cruel,
Transgressed the bounds of cruelty,
You are inhumane.
You called me a game,
You knew not of compassion,
You slayed empathy.
You called me a book,
Then teared out every last page,
I was just garbage.
First I thought you sweet,
Now I know you are sour,
You call me poison.
Good riddance to you,
I know that I must go now,
You cannot linger.

This reminds me of my ex. This poem is very well-written, and I like the emotion in it; it should be published in the magazine. You should definitely turn this into song lyrics.
