Goodbye

I have a disease and it’s killing me, I don’t put up guards, too open for my own good. I say what I feel and I feel too much, this Earth school is too dense. My heart’s too big, it makes no sense. It seems I love Earth but it doesn’t love me. I’m not fearless, not invincible but I am invisible. So, goodbye, dear friends, goodbye, I’m going back to the sky.
