Ok this more like lyrics than a poem I guess, but it was stuck in my head (you know the feeling) and it wanted to come out and play. Now what kinda person would I be to keep it locked up. I must be in a song writing mood. Sorry if it doesn't belong here, just trying to find it a home (like a puppy) Yeah it matters were you’re goin’ baby Just like it matter’s where you’ve been And if you ain’t so careful sugar This love is gonna end. ‘Cause I’m walking Walking right out that door. And if you don’t believe it baby I’ll come back in and do it for you once more. Yeah, I got those I ain’t gonna take it no more blues. Yeah I’m getting’ tired Of those same old lies, I smell your dirty cheatin’ laundry Just by looking in your eyes, I’m walking baby Walking right out that door And don’t be callin’ out my name I aint gonna be comin’ back here no more. Yeah, I got those I ain’t gonna take it no more blues. Monday, you were missing Tuesday, Wednesday too Thursday you said you were busy Friday, there’s no clue Saturday I came calling Wasn’t no one home, Sunday comes, you tell me, You want to be alone. Now I ain’t no professor, But mama didn’t raise no fool, Since you have no answers, I’ll tell you what I’ll do. I’m walking. Walking right out that door. Well, see that doorknob baby, That’s what I’m turning it for. It don’t matter were I’m goin’ baby Just like it don’t matter where you’ve been And since you’ve found some other This love is gonna end. ‘Cause I’m walking Walking right out that door. And if you don’t believe it baby I’ll come back in and do it for you once more. Yeah, I got those I ain’t gonna take it no more blues. Bye bye baby. Tossing words like wishful coins into the deep well of an open heart. R. fox |

Yup, it's a song, all right! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Ron K, Oh yes it is a song now all you need is the music. (Paging them right now, for you!) I really like this one, I shall definitely be expecting to hear this on the radio. Great work. Take care Mushy Marsha  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
