Brexit - Just My Thoughts

Remain or leave was the question 
Asked of the electorate at the referendum

The worlds our oyster we were told 
No need for us to be Europhiles anymore

Those words were of the Eurosceptics 
Because they wanted us to exit 

So we all voted on our fate 
And now we must all patiently wait
Whilst the politician’s still debate

If we remain or if we leave 
Should I then forever grieve 
When we know what seeds have been sown

Because whatever the outcome 
It just won’t be the right one for some

For those who wanted us to stay 
They will fight until the day 
When they get their own way

For those that wanted us to Brexit 
They will only be really pleased 
On the day that we leave 

Time is running out and a deal still to be done 
With the Euro Parliament

But if we have another referendum 
Wouldn’t it just change our nation 

Because the result of any new vote 
Will no longer be absolute or even stand

Until either the Europhiles or the Eurosceptics get the upper hand

DAMO
