The Place To Go Poem by Mustafa Khairallah

The Place To Go



i got up today
happy i dont know why
i wanted to run and play
to all i met i said hi
whatever one can say
he never makes me cry
charity i didnt before pay
from anger i used to die
what happened to me that day?
what made me no more shy?

i got in the car
not knowing where to go
can i go to the bar?
my heart said no
i thought of going far
a place noone can guess so
or can cover my mood with tar
or perform a miserable show
or make me eat from a sadness jar
or let me stand in the semi-dead row

Something inide me made me stop
that's not where i should be
to one place only you should hop
that's what it said to me
go to her or i will blow your top
the sound arised and made me flee
to her place.. as if i was followed by a cop
with her image i see
and her sound i hear.. like hearing pop
i said i love you and she said 'as well as me'
