When You Go by Artwell Masuku
Slam the door Behind you So I'll be sure You've left me Lying here in the barely dawn-lit room To meet my maker I want to see Your shadow passing by my window As you leave me to my demise Please don't step lightly But stomp Confidently Over the threshold When you leave Marching is not an angry sound Just the certain noise of going I want to hear when you leave Please ....please understand I'll never push you out When you leave I'll try not to hold you in But I can't promise When you're gone for good That I won't clutch the air Where you once stood And pray for forgiveness I'll be desperately seeking The punchline Beating my chest Angry that I can't control Your going Loudly or softly But I will be glad If you leave with a shout! Out that hard Painful door And please remember To wake the neighbours When you leave.
