Poemattic: Poetry and Art for the Soul

Oh my, this song is about me

my heart exposed completely

like on a MRI

the image clear

showing the tears

lodged inside.

 

Oh my, this song is about me

the lyrics tell our story

like the precious moments

because you are all I need to get by.

 

Oh my, this song is about me.

reminding me of that very first love

that seemed endless from the beginning

when you held me like

you would never let me go

and all I needed to know

was my lonely days are over.

 

Oh my, this song is about me.

bringing it home to me

because it’s so true

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day

I’ll love you for a thousand years

you always manage to take away my fears.

 

Oh my, this song is about me.

Before the day I met you, life was so unkind

But you’re the key to my peace of mind.

where it began I could not begin to knowing

But then I know it’s growing strong

I know the best is yet to come.
