Casey Lyon Poems

Please don’t leave.
I need you.
You give me the only light in my life.
You make me laugh.
...

Oh, I just can’t wait to get back home.
To be back with my family.
To be back to catch up with my life.
Oh, I just can’t wait to get back home.
...

I just got a ticket to Heaven,
And it feels so good.
To know that I’ll be leaving this planet soon,
To go and be in Heaven.
...

Hey, hey, hey
Don't you ever make me leave.
This is the only home I've only got.
I can't leave my family no matter how small it is.
...

My best friend’s gone and leaving me to face all the troubles by myself.
My sister’s gone off to college and left me in the dust.
My papa’s gone without leaving me any wisdom.
My pet’s died and gone off to heaven, leaving my laughs die also.
...

I gotta get out of this town
Get away from my family
Get away from my friends
Get away from my hometown
...

Oh how I envy my sister
Every time she talks
Every time she walks
Every time she goes somewhere
...

Oh Lord, give me a sign
Right here, right now
I just need a sign to get me through
Oh Lord, just give me a sign
...

I always have fun every single day
But with doing different things each day
Oh, I always have my own kind of fun
Every day of every year of my life
...

I start at the bottom of the mountain,
I take a rock and another rock as I start going up the mountain,
Rock after rock, I get halfway up on the rough mountain,
Oh dear, the mountain is starting to taunt me,
...
