Goodbye is a Good Buy by Sarah Jeanne Browne
Goodbye is a good buy
Because you pay for my absence
But not my absence of mind
Haunted by the feeling
That couldn’t hold up the ceiling
But came crashing down
The grief is what you found
You try to sell it as it is
Stoic, stolen, shy
But it is the blue sky
You have only to release it
And realize it was never yours
It could never be yours
Because it was ours.
