POETRY – DAY 10 – NATIONAL POETRY MONTH
If you’re looking to be showered with riches,
I don’t have any.
If you’re looking to live in a palace of gold,
I don’t have one
If you’re looking for someone whose word will lift you to the heavens?
I don’t know any
If you’re looking for what you have been told about, that majestic love
I’ve never heard of it.
But, what I do have
Is enough money to keep from hunger?
A place that keeps us out the cold
A place where we raise our children,
Then us sitting on the porch growing old.
All I know about love is…
To love you with all my heart and unquestioned devotion.
Enough to fill an endless ocean…
To love you with unchained passion, wanting to bring you
Complete satisfaction…
I don’t know any fancy words, most of the time I think they are a little absurd. The words I do have are honest and true.
This is all that I am. Just an ordinary and simple man
Is it enough, for you to take me with you?
