Isn't it funny how it only takes a few seconds to say hi, but forever to say goodbye?

I pack my bags to leave this house,
Leave all its sadness behind.
To forget the pain and fights,
Or all the things that mean might.
You hit me and bruised me,
I have to hide the scars.
For all the things you’ve done to me,
You should be behind bars.
You don’t know what you put me through,
Through all the pain and cries.
Well this is the end of it all,
My last words are goodbye.

&quot;I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater.&quot; -SN
