STORY STARTER

Leaving
Write about a character leaving something, or someone, they love.
Goodbye.
You kill me inside,
Made my eyes cry,
Don't know how I strived,
Lived, fell for, survived,
With such a thorn in my side,
I thought I'd bleed out and die,
Every word felt like a lie,
Nothing less than a confusing lie,
It was a waste of time,
To treat my hopes like they cost a dime,
Jailed for my crime
Of believing people will make me sublime,
A manslaughter of my mind,
My soul's free from stress, that kind,
You kill me inside,
And for that, I wave goodbye.
