You think that you are too good for this place
That you can make it out there

You think that you would have it better
That you can have whatever your heart desires

Well fine then have it your way,
I'm not blocking your path
But just remember
That you used to desire me

You think that they will welcome you
That they will open their arms and say
Come and join us

Well fine then have it your way,
I'm not blocking your path
But just remember
That you used to desire me

If there is nothing I can do to change your mind
Fine leave what you have behind

Find someone else who needs you
Find someone else who wants you
I will wait for you

Well fine then have it your way,
I'm not blocking your path
But just remember
That you used to desire me

Yes, I will wait for you


(This poem was inspired by the song "Leaving Town" by Dexter Freebish)

(smiles) Oh my gosh, I remember when they played that song, they never play it anymore but I have the tune memorized in my head:

"But when your broke and down and no one else is around
You'll come running back to this town and
I'll be there, yeah I'll be there.

Cause I remember how we shared time together
and how you used to say that the stars are forever.
And dreamed about how to make your life better by
leaving town, leaving town."

Written by: Dexter Freebish
Song: Leaving Town

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
something beautiful"

I know the feeling, hope your wait is not to long.  For I have been waiting for that someone just like you are doing.

We always seem to be honored when we are patient enough to wait. I like the title because it suggests strength. The ending was all good too.
