Do you remember last year, just around Thanksgiving, when I broke the news to 

everyone, I’m leaving for the city? I’ll take a mental picture. I won’t forget your face. 

To me you are so pretty. I’ll miss you all. So long.

This place is overwhelming. I haven’t left the house. I haven’t made a friend at all 

and all my friends pulled out. We’re living through each other. We’re connected 

with cell phones. We’re slowly losing service. I’ll miss you all. So long.

 This is my goodbye.

 I wave my hands from side to side.

 Kiss everyone goodbye.

 I wish them all the best.

 I’m leaving everything behind.

 Everyone I know is gone.

 I’m starting a new life.

 Where no one knows my name.

One man leaves as one man arrives. I’m just a tourist in this town. They’ve all seen 

my kind. We’re all just strange familiar faces. Filling up this space. I’ve gotta leave 

this place. I know I miss you all.

 So, this is my goodbye.

 I wave my hands from side to side.

 Kiss everyone goodbye.

 I wish them all the best.

 I’m leaving everything behind.

 Everyone I know is gone.

 I’m starting a new life.

 Where no one knows my name.
