Without You.... Without You Poem by Susan Lacovara

Without You.... Without You

Rating: 4.8


I'll take this rainy day
And turn it upside down
I'll head out on my way
And cover plenty ground
Without you... without you...

Put the t.v. on pause
And then, shut off the phone
I'll do it just because
I'm okay on my own
Without you....without you

Don't text me
Just forget me
Don't send no more email
If you could not respect me
My cooler head prevails
Without you...without you

Dust off my leather jacket
Put on my python shoes
Filled flask in my hip pocket
Head for the House of Blues
Without you....without you

Dance 'til the dawn comes calling
(Might even call in sick)
Some thought that I was falling
But I can rebound quick
Without you....Without you

Don't plan on doing drive-bys
To see if my light's on
You see I've gotten so wise
And programmed my alarm
Without you...without you

Don't beg for my forgiveness
It's much too late for that
It's my life and I'll live this
Don't forget your hat...
What love, once, made me wealthy
Now seems I've paid my due
Each day feels happy, healthy
Sad, but oh so true....
Without you...Without you...
Without you...

I believe this would make a wonderful mantra... a delightful soul song in its independent independence
