I’d like to put my thoughts on paper-
Say exactly how I feel…
I know that I could win you
With a love that’s true and real-

But, sadly, I’m unable
To bare what’s in my heart…
I guess the gift I’m lacking,
Is called “poetic art”.

I’ve always loved my music
I love a well-turned phrase.
The gift for painting pictures
With words, sometimes amaze.

But while I am a dreamer-
My dreams are unrevealed-
If only I could write my songs-
But my poor heart is sealed.

So, I’ll dream on in silence-
While others take the stage…
And sit and stare in sorrow-
At my unwritten page.

Please write me in to your unwritten page
with your poetic art,
that all those years ago, my love
has captured e'er since my heart.
