Where Are You Going?

Where are you going?
Please stay here
Sing another lullaby
To wash out my fears
Or tell a story
About your forgotten past
Or some of the people
That you’ve unmasked

Where are you going?
I’d like to know
The roads blocked off
Because of the snow
Stay in here where it’s nice and cold
Or go out there into the world
Comeback crying about your whirl
Crying about how you’re just a little girl

Where are you going?
Maybe you should leave
You could stay if you want
But my hearts on my sleeve
And I’m feeling kind of tired
Last night I was really wired
Never give me one of those again
Too many people became my close friend

Where are you going?
I don’t know why I care
Here’s some money go anywhere
Just please get the hell out of here
Sweetness only works
Until nostalgia fades away
That is what I say
At least I do on this day

You can only want them for just so long.  Your poem tells of the transition well.

     This poem told of a transition or instance in someone's life that was kinda traumatic.  The feelings express within this write were phrased excellently.
