Someday
will you leave me in peace?
Will your words leave my head?
Will your face
leave my dreams?
I wish you were gone
gone
on the inside
Someday
will you take these tears away?
take them
like you took me...
erase them
like a bad, bad memory
I just want you to be gone
gone on the inside
I hate
the things you said to me
the things you did to me
and
I can't get them gone.
These things
they stay
like blood stains...
and I wish
wish
you were gone
gone on the inside
Someday will you leave me?
Leave me with peace?
Take your voice from my head
take your face
from my dreams
and just leave
leave
leave me
like a bad
bad
bad
memory

Poetry: If you were gone
You Without Me
Oh what can it be
When I see you without me
The uneasiness of it all
And wrestling with my heart
Of being alone
We only met two years ago
But you are a constant in my life
The one thing that keeps me steady
When everything else is full
If you were gone
My life would be so much simpler
No calling to check on you
No going to pick up your mail
No going to pick
While I am here with you,
Close to my heart you will stay.
Never did I imagine
A love so fine.
With you,
My heart sings.
Because
by Helen Stuart
If you were gone
I'd have no reason to listen
For pick-up motors roaring
Into the driveway.
No smell of cigars
On your flannel
