I said I want to die
suicide
he said take this
golden necklace
it will give you bravery

I said I think it's time
he said no
a part of you must die
that, it is time
for

It is time for a part of me
the part I don't believe
suits anything
anymore
to drift away
into the background
of a life I didn't need

Old man wisdom
such a long life
so much bravery
don't doubt it
when it comes to these things

My old man
gave me the wisdom
years of knowing what it means

So goodbye
goodbye part of me
I do not need
I don't miss you anyway
I don't miss the tricks you played
on me
I don't miss the way you smelled
or the way you looked
or the way you dreamed
it wasn't me
it isn't me
thank you but i'm done
so say goodbye to part of me

this is my suicide letter
to the part of me I no longer need
goodbye
