To Be Your Man

What does it take to be your man?
What can I do to hold your hand?
Live the life that I once had
Remember all was not so bad

To let you know just how I feel
My love for you is more than real
It binds my heart to my soul
Reveals my strengths but takes it’s toll.

For with each day that passes by
The end is near, gets hard to try
To hide this pain I feel inside
This cover breaks and now I cry

This man you see, so strong and true
Is consumed by the very thought of you
Wants only that you know for sure
That all I have for you is pure

A final thought for you to think
This life we have is but a blink
And when it’s gone there is no way
To share it once again

So travel to your far off land
But bring with you the heart of this man
For without you it will die inside
Harden just like stone.

Nice work here, Spiked. What a plea...

Elizabeth


I'm grabbing my hat and coat
I'm leaving the cat a note
Quick call me a ferry boat-getting out of town!

Very Nice

You expressed yourself well with this, spiked, don't know what to say, as I seem to be lost in my own malaise these days...hugs to you.

Helps to know you will catch me when I fall.
