You
The day shifts as my mind wanders off astray,
as the paper slowly burns next to my porcelain ashtray
inspiration and imagination took me away
as I write the dry leaves slowly decay

I’m looking for something beautiful to write about
and then I thought about you.
then after that it was the easiest thing to do.
I started to think about things that made me happy
and then I was lost in the idea of you

it all made sense, and for a while I even thought I knew
how the waves crash into the shore, and this thing called morning dew
for a second there I thought I knew,
I thought I knew why the sky was blue,

silence speaks volumes when it comes to you.
I had some, and now most of you
none and now all of you
you made me do things I could’ve never thought I’d do.

sorry it took me some time to stop and simply appreciate you
I never really knew how to give it back, but I’ll try to
by thinking of words that rhyme with you
