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

I really like this. It almost has the quality of a quatern poem, if you had kept the one phrase going through four stanzas only

You are correct. It is actually lyrics of a song that never came to fruition. I have two versions of the song, both of which don't quite make the grade. More work to do. Thanks for commenting and your support.
