Leo's Song

By mlamont

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I came home cryin tonight The rain wont stop beating against the window pane All those years of never calling and all those tears that fell When Leo went away He came home cryin last night I've never seen the way he looked before. The look in his eyes told me that he never had a chance to say goodbye. My father told me son, just look away, and keep your tears at bay For all those years of never calling and for all your tears that fall Please remember that we almost had it all. She came home cryin tonight. She swore she'd never talk to him again. But when she saw his face all her love and hate faded, like the years that passed by. As she turned away she kept her tears at bay and she swore, it was the coldest day in June, she's ever known. For all those years of never calling and for all her tears that fell. She realized it all meant nothing in the end. The day, that Leo went away. Written December 10th, 2001 © on Dec 10 2001 02:38 PM PST   20 • 0 • 10
