An Unexpected Goodbye

Sarra Amro

Cairo, Egypt

A facade to make you feel better,

A facade to hurt you less.

A facade that covers up the pricks and aches of my battered chest

If I have to go soon,

Just promise me you know

You’re the strongest man I’ve ever seen,

Promise me you’ll let go

And before I take my last breath,

I’ll make sure to hold your hand,

Look you in the eyes,

Thank you without saying a word,

You will be alright,

Despite your state disturbed, 

Before i take my last breath,

I’ll make sure to hold your hand,

If it were up to me, it’d end different,

I hope you understand.
