Poetry: After I leave you

by Shakia Shine

Created on: February 23, 2010

After I leave you I'll finally be free

I can breathe a lot easier I can smile and be me

After I leave you I can hang with my friends

I can catch up with their lives and start mine over again

After I leave you I can wear a low cut shirt

With some sexy lingerie and a short mini skirt

After I leave you I can eat as much as I please

No more being afraid that If I gain too much weight you would leave

After I leave you I can take a road trip with my cat

Do it the old fashion way, just me,  the radio and a map

After I leave you I can learn to live

And for once in my life take as much as I give

After I leave you I'll finally be free

To learn to live without  you and learn to love me.
