Farewell letter

Today, I will be leaving this town.
The book I borrowed is on the desk.
The orange knit is for my little sister.
The fish need to be fed twice a day.

I'm sorry for selfishly deciding all this on my own
but today was the time to leave,
not yesterday, and not tomorrow

Here, I've always been surrounded by wonderful people
who've loved me
There will no replacement for and no equivalent of
this town which
I will be leaving today

I've got to go before the church bells ring
Take care, everyone.
