If I Left

Another from my original collection of short, reflective poetry.

If I left town today
would they still ask or say,
what path did he wander down?
Why'd he ever leave this town?

Would living still be the same
if when you called, I never came?
No, you'd not hear my name
"cause I never reached their fame!

Shadows dark and deep
in my brain gently creep.
As memories of days gone past,
settle with dreams which didn't last.

I love you, that you know.
But why won't you open up to me?
Please say, just tell me so -
If to stay or if to go!!
