Goodbye, Man of a thousand days! br It's been three years too long! br You hurt me in so many ways, br But now I must be strong! br You played me like a violin, br My heartstrings throbbing still... br Today's the day, the day I win! br And Man, it's such a thrill! br No more moaning when I come home, br Because you won't be there! br Don't give a monkey's where you roam, br 'Cos I no longer care! br You've had your chance! You're outa here! br Evicted! O-U-T... br I've spelt it out to make it clear! br Today you're history! br You hurt me in so many ways, br But now I must be strong! br Goodbye, Man of a thousand days! br It's been three years too long! br br br Denis Martindale, copyright December 2010. br br br The poem is based on the poem penned by br Charlotte Murray, 'Good Bye Forever' br which I found on the poemhunter.com website.
