Bitter Goodbye - #chickasha #ninnekah #oklahoma #senoritabirdbrain #dwarftommy
He seemed real nice…
Opened doors like a gentleman would
Always kind when I passed by
Never asked, just understood
I thought he was shy
Quiet and maybe a little unsure
So I never gave it much of my time
Even though I felt his heart was pure
When my world fell down
And I said goodbye to someone cruel
That’s when he told me how he felt
And I… acted like a fool
I laughed at him like he was out of his mind
Said he needed room to breathe
I just carried on like nothing
Never thought he would leave
Now he won’t even say hello
Turns his back and moves so slow
I’m just a ghost in a crowded room
Like I bring shadows and gloom
I thought he was just shy…
Now he won’t even look me in the eye
I tried to catch him still, one day
Tried to hold him with words I’d play
But he just slipped away like smoke again
He would not stay, he would not explain
So I went home… to that old mistake
To a drunken man and fights like earthquakes
Told my coworkers what I planned to do
Just to see if he’d react — wouldn’t you?
I didn’t know he’d had enough
I pushed him away, my teasing rough
He looked at me one final time
He said, “Get away from me… and die.”
My throat went dry.
His anger made me cry.
And I thought he was just shy...
Now he walks around like I don’t exist
Avoids me like I’m some toxic mist
I don’t know what I said that broke
A quiet man who once softly spoke
I thought he was just shy…
It was his way of saying Goodbye
I just don’t understand what went wrong
Maybe I was wrong all along…
