Because.. It's Only Natural
9/19/09 6:30AM
So, you cheated on me..
And all you could say,
was "It's only natural"..
So I wrote you this note
and went back to packing..
Because the leaves fall from the trees,
after their grand finale..
Because a flower dies after
it gives it's best display..
Because the river keeps running,
yet never goes anywhere..
Because it is impossible
to count all of the stars..
Because the sky doesn't stop going up
while the ground is right there..
You asked me Why I'm leaving you?
and I replied..
"It's only natural.."
And with each step towards the door
I whisper:
"I'm not one of your "groupies"."
"I already gave you all that I had."
"I'm spinning my wheels here."
"I'm tired of trying."
As the door clicks behind me, I say..
"My possibilities are endless!"

Great piece...
Impressive work...
Deep, profound & heartfelt piece that questions as it answers with the most wonderful imagery that had the feel of native american fable...
Keep up the good work...
Well done!!!
