I wrote my poetry
To a symphony of snoring
As my lady lies beside me
Sleeping through till morning

The kids asleep
In the rooms next door
While I,m wide awake
Writing once more

Probably writing
Till one maybe two
Till sleep overtakes me
And I fall asleep too

She looks so peaceful
As she lies there asleep
The kids are so quiet
I hear not a peep

Maybe it's wrong
But I feel it's right
To say that I love
This time of night

It's my time of creation
The darkness of night
When words come a haunting
And I start to write

But now as I tire
I turn out my light
All that's left to do now
Is wish you all goodnight

Do the blind of the world
See no evil
Do the deaf of the world
Hear no evil
Do the dumb of the world
Speak no evil
If so
Take these senses from me
As long as I can smell the wonderful scents of the world
And hold the hands of the people I love
I would be truly happy

Sleep evades me
Most every night
Words fill my head
When I turn out my light

When I close my eyes
The poetry demon enters my head
So I stay awake all night
Writing instead

I close my eyes
Finally sleep envelops me
I start to dream
I dream poetry

Then when I wake
And open my eyes in the morn
I write about my dreams
And some poems are born

I love you
You love me
Will you marry me

I. Remember the. First time I saw her
It was a warm summers night
She had. The wow. Factor
  Taught  me to believe in love at first sight
  We shared our first hello
I  loved her soft tender smile
She dressed like a lady
Full of grace and style
I. Wanted to ask her out
But I started to hesitate
She was too beautiful for me
I was punching above my weight
I,ll never forget
As I turned to walk away
She opened her mouth
And I heard her say
HOY YOU WERE YOU GANNING

If you,ve something to say
Don,t squeak like a mouse
Roar like a lion
Bring down the house
If its the truth you are speaking
Make sure you,re heard
Roar like a lion
With every word
A truth softly spoken
Just does,nt ring true
Roar like a lion
Let people hear you
There's no greater sound
Than a lions roar
So roar like a lion
And speak the truth evermore

Some people say
Men are,nt supposed to cry
But that's a load of crap
And now I,ll tell you why
I watched the champ
And at the end when he died
Something  strange happened
I broke up and cried
I cried and cried
At another film too
A fault in our stars
It broke my heart in two
So don,t you believe it
When you hear men don,t cry
Cos one weepy film
Puts tears in my eye
Guess I,m just a softy
But shhh don,t tell anyone
Cos men ain't posed to cry
Guess I,m just an odd one
