A Lost Earring

Nobody knows I have it But I know it’s still there Your earring in my pocket Let’s me pretend you care You left it just the other night I found it on the floor Your earring in my pocket Gives me hope that there is more It’s just a little thing It’s not part of the plan With your earring in my pocket For a moment I’m your man I dream we love each other And that we’ll always be Together until the end of time You say you’ll be with me Nobody knows I have it No one would understand With your earring in my pocket In my heart - I am your man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Co-written by Gail Brown Entry: "One in Five" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Joseph May - June 28, 2022 (2)
