Starving and unable to quench my thirst
I left your well
burning pearls of sweat
trickle down my back and forehead

I've refused to learn how to say goodbye
I leave
startled by the sudden darkness
never saw it coming

Found a map
I don't want to follow
and a cup I cannot drink from
It's time to go, before you send me back again.
