The Tickle in my Throat

A poem about a story I'm writing.

There's a tickle in my throat.
I laugh when it laughs,
I cry when it cries.
I smile when it smiles,
I lie when it hides.

But nobody sees when;
It sighs, whines,
or when it dies.

For once again, there's a tickle in my throat.
I will not say, "goodbye."
