Poem
I was lost in the world and thought that to be happy was to settle I thought that true love or the one was just a matter of fiction I had caged my heart in a box made of metal And made my work more like an addiction I thought when you had kids with someone you had to always be with them Be responsible meet her needs and do the right thing I thought it was forever even if my heart said it should end I thought i had to honor her and give her the ring The many times she put me down the times she hurt me inside and out I still stayed and said its your job to put up with it because you have kids I never thought i would ever find what true love was all about Its as if love was on the auction block and i had all the low bids But then the strangest thing happend to me when i had givin up hope When i was upset and coming home from work i saw her walking by I thought to myself do i have a chance and my mind replied and said nope Then i thought i could keep going but she really caught my eye So i said what the heck and turned my bike around too talk to her I was so nervouse i forgot to take off my helmet I tried to say something smooth but my mind was just a blur My words came out shaky and i started to swet I asked her for her number and if i could take her out to eat She replied ever softly and granted my request My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest with every beet Because somehow i knew she was not like the rest She said yes but she never saw my face so why would she agree I could have ben disfigured or had a third eye So i asked her why she said yes and she said it was how you spoke to me She said she figured i was a nice guy So anyway we met again and it was love at first sight The second that we saw eachother it was like an instant connection So iguess i can say my heart was right And it pulled me in the right direction People always say to listen to your head and your life will be better Because listening to your heart will only get you pain And to those people is why i write this letter Because when i listend to my heart it wasnt the same You see my head said to leave and i didnt have a chance But my heart said to give it a go And now i have true romance And a love that makes me glow
