The other day I felt like leaving, <br />packing up my tools and going, <br />saying goodbye to everyone, <br />then disappear into the yonder blue. <br />However, something stopped me <br />its hard to say what it was. <br />Something inside said do not do this, <br />you will only live with regret. <br />I took myself a side <br />weighed up the pros and cons <br />and realised I’d be better <br />just to stay just where I was. <br />I could trim down my output <br />and experiment a bit; <br />do a few things <br />I hadn’t done for a while. <br />I know some of my friends <br />will be happy that I’ll stay, <br />yet no doubt, there will be some. <br />Who will wish that I had gone away. <br /> <br />14 March 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/goodbye-to-everyone/
