You're looking at this poem, Thinking I'm lonesome, Or perhaps you're thinking I'm in love, Though truly, I'm free as an uncaged dove. Then why would I say I'm loving someone? Truly, I'm writing this for you lovers, or just anyone. My heart's been cold and dry for a while, So this won't make me smile, But here's hoping you'll give your heart a test-run, Maybe find a loved one. Have more success than I ever will, Tell someone you'll love them even if the world ends, still. Find a place in their heart, Swear you'll never be apart. Never let go of their hand, As if your wrists are bound, you're sinking in your love's quicksand. A brilliant drowning, Minutes you'll never be counting. You won't give up; promise me that, Though writers are heartbroken, give your heart a door mat. Let someone in the door, You'll never need anything more.

Loving You
You're looking at this poem, Thinking I'm lonesome, Or perhaps you're thinking I'm in love, Though truly, I'm free as an uncaged dove. Then why would I say I'm loving someone? Truly, I'm writing this for you lovers, or just anyone. My heart's been cold and dry for a while, So this won't make me smile, But here's hoping you'll give your heart a test-run, Maybe find a loved one. Have more success than I ever will, Tell someone you'll love them even if the world ends, still. Find a place in their heart, Swear you'll never be apart. Never let go of their hand, As if your wrists are bound, you're sinking in your love's quicksand. A brilliant drowning, Minutes you'll never be counting. You won't give up; promise me that, Though writers are heartbroken, give your heart a door mat. Let someone in the door, You'll never need anything more.
