Going, Going, Gone Poem by Joanna Hamilton

Going, Going, Gone



You thought you could keep me here,
hold me back,
but you're wrong.
I’m gone,
I’m never coming back.
You couldn't stop me with a freight train.
You couldn't keep me from walking away.
You can't stop me now because
I’m gone.
I’m so far gone the doctors
gave up,
they let me loose,
they know the truth:
You're a liar and a cheater
and I’m never going back.
I’m going away
into the sunset
with my prince charming
on my horse.
Going to my house,
my place,
my life,
because you can't stop me.
I’m gone.
I’m so far gone
you'll never find me again.
I’m going, going
gone.
