A Poem by SLOVA

Today's the day I leave the man I love
There isn't much good in me to speak of
When he tells me he adores this feeling 
It gets harder and harder to say I'm leaving

Today's the day I leave the man I love
I think he'll be all right, my man is tough
He asks me all the time if I feel it too
I say "Babe, you don't love me like I love you."

See I know that he won't
They're calling him a pet
And if he won't, then I will
Before he does something he regrets

See I'm on the rise, it's like stage five
And I'm fighting for his life
He needs to go
So today I send him home because

Today's the day I leave the man I love
There's no other man kinder than rough
I'll have to lie so he sets me free
Today's the day that my man leaves me

Sometimes breakups are necessary, despite them being painful. Even though it sounds a bit cliche - what doesn´t kill us makes us stronger. :)

Thank you very much, Terry.
I like the repetition. Gave life and purpose to the words.
"I'll have to lie so he sets me free
Today's the day that my man leaves me"
