A song with no tune

I saw the way

the flashing fireworks played

across your upturned face

and I wanted to stay

in that grassy field forever

getting to know you better.

On that starry night in July

I can’t explain why

that vodka hit me that way

but I wanted to stay

by that campfire forever

getting to know you better.

Now baby I do

and it’s all about you

but my love lingered on

and I wanted to stay

in that misery forever

even though I knew better.

I’m finally free

brought me down to my knees

I wish you no pain

but you know I can’t stay

It’s time for me to move on with

getting to know me better.

Poem by me.
