The Sweetest Spot In The Middle Of Goodbye Poem by Eric Roxas

Goodbye is difficult.

It is bitter.

Sad.

A torture.

A slapstick comedy,

A parody of a promise,

A pleasantry exchange.

Tiresome and hurtful.

But, right in the middle

Of words unspoken.

Among the emotionless

Motions,

Beneath the silence

We seem to scream,

Beyond, the melodramatic

Memories long-playing

In our crying hearts,

Goodbye is a revelation.

A celebration of our truths.

It’s a humble acceptance

Of what we cannot be.

And that’s what I choose to see.

Our reality!

That tiny speck of honesty-

The sweetest spot

In the middle of

Our goodbye.
