Leaving

You picture the day
The sky will be overcast
Leaves dancing in the wind
Tears in your eyes
The box you are carrying is heavy
It contains everything you've collected
And all the memories
Of that place
And you walk away
Giving your second home
One last look
You say goodbye

But when that day comes
It's completely different
And you're relieved that it is
Because you need everything to look like
Just another day
The sun shines and birds sing
Everything is perfect
Except that you have
Four or five bags
Containing all those things you collected
And all those memories
And you leave
Not saying goodbye
Because you don't even know how to.
