Change of Life
Good, George
George Good Change of Life Suddenly you are still sitting there when someone in you has gotten up and walked out, slamming the door, hoping never to be seen again. Without a word, he has left you...
...Having broken through the cocoon that protected your old future, he's already out there living the authentic life...
...Whatever it was, the damage is done, and that long marriage with yourself is over...
...There is no other choice...
...He is out there alone at some corner bar...
...He left you high and dry, the bastard...
...Who knows, maybe it was a woman's smile, something you said, or the politics at the office...
...You must follow him...
...He's walking cold and unfamiliar streets...
...Now he's pausing to think his own thoughts on lanes that are rich and quick with autumn Soon he'll be forgetting all our old midnight talks...
...Now you must get up and try to find him in another time zone...
...Without a word, he has left you behind...
...he's hearing all our old songs from the other side...
