Be Gone Or Be Here Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Be gone.
Or be here.
Be gone.
Or be here.
Be gone.
Or be here with me.

Somedays I don't do what you like.
And...
On those days you pick me to fight.
And...
I can't seem to do nothing right.
And...
Even if I do you want to nag me,
All night.

So...
Be gone or be here.
And quiet out of sight.
Just be gone or be here.
Without starting a fight.
Why can't you be gone.
Or be here,
To please a need I have for peace.

Be gone.
Or be here.
Be gone.
Or be here.
Be gone.
Or be here with me.

What can't you be gone.
Or be here.
Be gone.
Or be here.
Be gone.
To leave that agreed.

Somedays I don't do what you like.
And...
On those days you pick me to fight.
And...
I can't seem to do nothing right.
So,
If you walk out on me...
Keep on steppin' permanently.
Since...
That peace I'm appetizing,
Will increase when you finally leave.
