Poetry Contest

I feel like I've cheated...but I entered some song lyrics (that I wrote, so its really not cheating) into a a poetry contest.

Thought I might share them

If It's So Easy To Leave
Michael Wren
Michael Wren Publishing 2006


I'm not so much into love right now
I used to pretend that I didn't know how
Then you came along and somehow
I let myself, slip right in.

In is in until you're on the outs
Fingers point and you're full of doubts
Then theres tears and words and they're all about
Whose fault it is...it's mine again

If it's so easy to leave then just walk away
There's nothing here to see, its all gone away
If being done is the only way, then its the only way
If it's easy to leave...it's easy to leave

I think love is a fool's game
You jump right in and don't look both ways
Now I'm stuck out here and you've gone away
What do I want to say? What do I want to say?

I never thought you'd just turn and run
Look at these pieces, they've all come undone
I thought all along you were the only one
but now its only done
Where's all this coming from?

If it's so easy to leave then just walk away
There's nothing here to see, its all gone away
If being done is the only way, then its the only way
If it's easy to leave...then why don't you leave
