Click here to hear the poet read his words:
when you left
when you left you took the sunshine
you took the summer and the spring
you took the daffodils and daisies
you took the songs the songbirds sing
you took the autumn evenings
you took the moonlit night
you plucked the stars out of the sky
you extinguished all the light
you left behind the winter
the snow fall thick and fast
you blew the hailstones in my face
the leaden icy blast
you took the joy out of my life
you took the smooth left just the rough
you took everything I care about
the smile and the heart I love
Geeez…that was pretty sad. Poor guy.
