When I Move
by Joan SerratelliWhen I move
from this house
I will not pack the ghosts
That have stayed here
to haunt me
and make me miserable
I will not be
sorry to leave
this house has
never been lucky
for me
No goodbyes
No tears
i will just walk
out of this house
with what's left
of my sanity
and never look back 02/22/2006
Author's Note: I'm moving soon. As you can tell, I am not unhappy about the move!
