Don'T Say a Word, Just Leave

Here I am, 
Again,
In awkward solitude,
Slaving myself thinking
…and thinking;
But, 
The mind won’t say a thing;
See 
What you’ve done, 
How could you make them cry?
I used to see 
Their smile,
But right now is anger and sadness
They feel;
You’ve caused the pain;
Don’t say a word, just leave!
Go
Go… to the man that’ll give you wealth;
That’s what you wanted;
If not,
You won’t be hurting us, when 
I was in Saudi, 
Working day and night
Just
For us, all.
