Jane & Johnny DoeA Poem by JaushWilsonJane and Johnny were in love. Johnny went down the road of addiction, and never came back. Jane couldn't handle the heart break.
He claimed, I'm just havin' my fun
No problems, No harms been done Never listened to a thing she'd say He ran till he couldn't run, Till he couldn't run He changed, Into selfish ways Day and night, Lord knows she'd pray Jesus help him, Please she'd say The man I used to know, Where'd he go? It started with a 9-1-1 Fading out like the setting sun Oh Johnny do you know what you've done Love came, You ran away It ended with a 10-7-9 Nowadays the sun don't ever shine Cause Johnny, He left Jane behind With nobody by her side, All alone she'd cry She slipped into such a dark state She tried but couldn't take the heart ache Eventually her sanity would part ways Then Jane would surely go, Down a broken road In a bottle she sank, She wept Took pills and like a baby she slept She never planned to follow his steps Fell asleep but she never woke, She never woke It started with a 9-1-1 Fading out like the setting sun Oh Jane do you know what you've done Oh no, There she goes It ended with a 10-7-9 In search of peace she'd never find Nowadays the sun don't ever shine Not for Jane and Johnny Doe, Nooo © 2017 JaushWilson |
