Today I Leave

From you today I must leave
And I'm fairly certain you won't grieve
When you see me leave through that door
Cause you don't love me any more

Traveling on through the night
Following the trail of our headlights
Leaving behind a used up love
Feeling nothing but free as a dove

Though I don't know what's going to happen
To the music my foot keeps on tapping
I know it's sadness I should be feeling
But I just can't seem to stop reeling

Without a home but plans abound
There's no telling where we're bound
We've talked of starting a Karaoke show
It'd be easy with five thousand dollars to blow

My son I'll leave off with his dad
He won't mind and his dad will be glad
I'm sure his dad won't let me stay
I'd be nothing but in the way

I'll get a job pretty soon
Then I'll go and rent a room
It won't be anything special
Probably be more like a cell

But I'll be there all alone
And I won't have to listen to his tone
I'm sure I won't know what to do
But it's for sure I won't be blue

You are listening to Dark Side by Eddie and The Cruisers.
I have such an eclectic taste in music that it is hard for me
to pick just the right song but this one seems appropriate.
I really like the movie and the music but this site
is about my slip into the dark side!

All poetry presented here is original works of art written by me.
Please do not recreate any of them without expressed permission from me.
My inspiration was my pain and as such is quite personal.
It is my soul that is bared through these words.
