Im not so poetic Seem to trip up on my words They came stumbling down the stairs, And-- up and out the door Landed right at your feet Delivered so pathetically But that's no rare thing Your presence, it what you do to me Made you (one) crack a smile So you stayed for a while And (two) sentences later I was staring back at the ground So you (three) held my hand And I finally I understand . . . That you just ask me to be me, (four) And nothing more
