Get Out

by Dahni

 

That’s it!  Can’t take it any more!
Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
You just lay around - leave all your stuff for me and anyone near, to slip, trip and fall.
No affection - you’re so cold and frigid.  Can’t breathe - you’re so thick and depressing.
 Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
My eyes grow sore looking at you - you’re so selfish - you’re no fun anymore
I don’t love you anymore!
Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
Oh, sure - You’re pretty, but I have been looking at you so long
just laying around for so long - not talking - no communication
and you’re worse at night - so cold and hard as rock
Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
Oh, sure - You’re bright, but when was the last time we spoke
of anything that mattered - you’re so thick, no one seems to get through you -
you add nothing to no one anymore
Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
I know you’re history - when you leave - you always seem to come back, freeloader
but NOT THIS TIME!
Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
Take all your stuff - all your choking blankets and get out!  I’ve a new lover!
Spring is coming and she’s going to wash the earth bed and everything else!
Winter -Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
Just try and come back!
I’ll change to an unlisted location!
Here’s a thermometer -
go call someone who cares!
Pack your stuff and leave!
You’ve been hanging around too long!
