Poem

So poetry had always been a huge part of my life. The connection between poetry and music is undeniable. Ive decided to share some of mine here on occasion. No it's not quite what I made this blog for but guess what? It's my blog :P Chances are if you have to ask what a poem is about, I won't tell you. My poetry comes from everywhere. Television, music, news, my heart.



C'mere Baby and take off that hat
I like to see your eyes sparkle
Under the kitchen lights
As you tell me about your day

You know I can't really cook
But I try to make dinners edible
Every night you say it's awesome
Your favorites, you say, are the burnt ones

Sipping on cheap wine
I watch your shoulders move
As you scrub the pans I burnt dinner in
Same ones I burnt dinner in yesterday

For the first time I notice
One of your ears is lower than the other
I can't believe I missed that
I love you even more with your tiny flaw

Give up on the pan Darling
Come sit by me with our cheap wine
Sit quietly and I'll sing you a song
About a perfectly imperfect man

A man whose eyes sparkle
Who never complains about burnt food or pans
A man with one ear slightly lower than the other
Let me sing you a song Baby

Let me sing you our song.
