Goodbye.

Treat others how you wish to be treated.

That means if I’m not talking to you,

you should shut your mouth

and learn what the word “silence” means.

If you don’t know, tell me

and I’ll buy you a dictionary.

 

Your voice hurts my ears.

The vibrations that come from your throat

crash through my ear canal

and trigger a blinding pain in my temples.

 

I really don’t want to talk to you right now,

if I haven’t made that clear.

Just shut up and go to bed

or text your boyfriend on your phone.

Whatever you want to do

so long as it doesn’t involve

Trying to engage in

any sort of conversation with me.

 

Are you seriously still here?

Have you not heard what I’ve been saying?

Go away.

Go away and bother somebody else.

Have fun without me, I really don’t care.

Just leave me alone

so I can actually hear myself think.

Fine, if you won’t leave, I will.

See you later alligator,

after while crocodile,

and don’t even think of

following me out that door.

I’ve had enough of your shit for one night.

 

Goodbye.
