Should I stay or should I go now?
The same old people are here again,
Selling their soul's in the name of love.
Under the spotlight they have a beautiful face,
But as the light moves on without them,
They do not like what they have become.
The beautiful people need the light to shine upon them,
For all the world to see.
People like me we only sink into the background,
Happy to never be seen.
I cannot face another beautiful face,
So full of false smiles and a made up beauty.
I must hide behind this face; I hide away from love,
They think it is insecurity;
But I am secure in the knowledge that I am no deep thinking muse.
I am no thing of beauty;
I am nothing like you.
The beautiful people shine in any light,
While I waste my life;
I waste my time.
I fall down into my broken mind and simply turn out the light.
Put me out of your mind,
I am not waiting in line to be loved.
I already know that I will never be good enough.
Leave me be, here in my own misery,
Or I will never be able to see the vision of love I am waiting for…
As she finds me I hear her siren song;
Love is endlessly calling out for me.
She is unique; I am obsolete,
But she is reason I have not yet walked out of that door…

- Comment from author about the poem: "Should I Stay Or Should I Go?" Darlin' you got to let me know Should I stay or should I go? If you say that you are mine I'll be here 'til the end of time So you got to let me know Should I stay or should I go? It's always tease tease tease You're happy when I'm on my knees One day is fine and next is black So if you want me off your back Well come on and let me know Should I stay or should I go? Should I stay or should I go now? Should I stay or should I go now? If I go there will be trouble And if I stay it will be double So come on and let me know This indecision's buggin' me (esta indecisión me molesta) If you don't want me, set me free (Si no me quieres, librame) Exactly whom I'm supposed to be (Dime! ¿Qué tengo ser?) Don't you know which clothes even fit me? (No sabes que ropas me queda) Come on and let me know (Pero tienes que decir) Should I cool it or should I blow? (¿Me debo ir o quedarme?) Split (Doble! ¿Me frío o lo soplo?) (Esperda) (Rrattarrattarrattaa...) Should I stay or should I go now? (Yo me enfrio o lo soplo) Should I stay or should I go now? (Yo me enfrio o lo soplo) If I go there will be trouble (Si me voy, va a haber peligro) And if I stay it will be double (Si me quedo, es doble) So you gotta let me know (Pero que tienes que decir) Should I cool it or should I blow? (¿Me frío o lo soplo?) Should I stay or should I go now? (¿Me frío o lo soplo?) If I go there will be trouble (Si me voy, va a haber peligro) And if I stay it will be double (Si me quedo, es doble) So you gotta let me know (Pero que tienes que decir) Should I stay or should I go?

“To thine own self be true...”
I enjoyed the video, Aa!
Hadn’t heard that song in
quite a while! Thank you!
~Laura~
You are welcome. I haven't had time to answer a lot of comments recently because of other commitments, but I will try to answer some other comments over the next few days. At the moment I am desperate to write my finished poetry into my books, so I have something to give you all tomorrow, other than older work. So with haste, I say I haven't heard it in a while either, but the poem title was inspired by the song, so it had to be attached.
"Always read the stories that you hear on Wikipedia..."
No need to answer Aa..... really liked this as so few of us fit the "beautiful people" category, just being nice enough just the way we are!
There is always a need for me to answer anybody who has taken the time to read my poetry.
There is never enough time.
The time is 2.50am. I need to sleep,
So I will just say it is a pleasure to read your comment, as always, and I must also say thank you for being a beautiful soul.
I would rather be a beautiful soul than just a face.
Goodnight.
"Hey!
So glad you could make it.
Yeah!
Now you've really made it.
Hey!
So glad you could make it now...
Oh look at my face.
My name is might have been.
My name is never was.
My name's forgotten...
Hey!
So glad you could make it.
Yeah!
Now you've really made it.
Hey!
There's only us left now!"
