For the Ones Who Like to Leave (when all that was wanted was for you to stay)

Posted by Sue (El Tigre Chino) on March 15, 2014 at 10:50 PM

The refrain is the one that stays.
Constant and sure, static at best,
always to be found somewhere near;
There is beauty in the loyal.


Why couldn't you be a refrain?
The refrain is the one that stays.
Faster than flashing carnival
lights, a hurried humming bird's beat



No refrain, never a refrain-
you could never be a refrain;
the refrain is the one that stays.
You never stay, only like to leave


you were gone before I could say
you were here, I know it, you were here.
One needs refrains in life because
the refrain is the one that stays.
