Rae Stegall Poet I do not know?

Why'D You Have To Go?

Why’d you have to go?
This is home,
This is were the heart is,
Where your start is.
And this is where you sat
Everyday
And every night I look
But I can’t stay,
Have to look away,
It’s your memory that haunts me,
You memory that taunts me,
And I have to run away.
I know if I stay
That I’ll just waste away.
I know that I have to go,
I put on a good show
But the fights over,
I can go.
But your memory it haunts me,
Still always taunts me.
And I’m afraid I’ll go down,
And get stuck in that hole in the ground
That leads to hell.
Hope you’re well,
Because rotting in this I won’t be.
In my own house,
Your house,
Hell looks a lot like home.
Why’d you have to go?
