Lyric 2
(To Stacey)
play goodbye
frankie
drop
a coin or two in the box
and
say
goodbye
play it now
frankie
listen
to
the
blues
the muse
the song
that
tells you
why
you
have to
say
play
goodbye
no
you never
wanted
to say it
but
play it
now
while evening dusk
fades
into
night
so lonely so blue
play it
now
while she haunts
the heart
the soul
of
you
play your last
frankie
the die is cast
frankie
go on
say
your
last goodbye
and soon
god please
make it soon
soon
you won’t
remember
soon
you won’t
forget
soon
you won’t
hear
the sounds
of
her
spinning
round in your head
the sounds of her
spinning
round
go on
drop a coin
frankie
then
you can
forget
the lyric
yes
drop a coin
so you can
forget
the melody
drop a coin
so you won’t
forget
the song of her
say it
say
goodbye
because
you will never
ever
play it
because
you could never
ever
say
never
tell her
goodbye.

I thought that this poem "Love Song 1: Lyric 2(To Stacey)" is a great poem. I liked how she described how it was hard to say goodbye. Saying goodbye to a person is never easy. What I understood from this poem is that Stacey was a girl that the narrator really liked and somehow they broke up and for Frankie it was hard to say goodbye. Stacey was a person that meant a lot to the narrator.
"Love Song 1: Lyric 2 (To Stacey)" is a great poem. I love the poem but I am confused about the beginning... I liked how she described how it was hard to say goodbye. Overall, great poem, just tell more like examples.
What I enjoyed about the poem "Love Song 1: Lyric 2 (to Stacey)" is that the words are very visual and descriptive. When Frankie Lennon says, "drop a coin or two in the box" I can imagine her literally dropping a coin into a jukebox and playing a melody in which she says her goodbyes. Saying goodbye is something that I do not like to do, especially if that person is a very intimate friend of mine. In the case of Frankie, she did not want to say goodbye to her loved one Stacey because she was really important to her. It was difficult for her to say goodbye and that attracted me into keep reading what was going to happen in the end.
