I’m about done here, all packed up & ready to go
It’s no longer fun here, at the last reel the end of the picture show
There’s nothing to be won here, I’ll turn off the lights shut the door & go
Because it’s not what it once was – not anymore
I tried to do good here, do what’s expected & walk the straight path
I tried to bring love here, not what we have in its aftermath
I tried to do right here, but all seems so wrong & that’s so sad
So I’ll say goodbye to here, it can’t get any worse it’s already too bad
With the memories I have I’ll break out of the dark
They’ll serve as a blueprint to make a brand new start
Cleanse my spirit, my will, my mind & my heart
Take control, live my life in the sun & be bold
I won’t forget you, there’s no way I ever will
I’m sure I’ll love you, years from now that I’ll feel still
When I walk out the door that’s the end no more
‘Cause the love we have won’t make the grade – not anymore

Wow Christopher your brave. I think it is hard to start over. It really is. Sometimes I think it is better just to keep things as is because it is safer in one way. I would be to afraid to date. Things are messy with me right now and I just don't know how do you begin to date after a certain age. It would be hard. Maybe for men it is easier but not for women. Excellent poem I can really relate to this.
