Land Lady

I wrote this ballad for you my land lady Finding the right words to mean more but write less Has taken me a night or two, What’s the rush for a beauty that’s an endless applause to the creator? When I call you my land lady, It’s because I reside in your heart and you in mine. A red cathedral where I sing my throat sore Songs of songs of warm toffee and fine rose Only lavender candles and yellow essence. This chemistry is covalent, supple yet never rusty; I know you come with baggage But my heart is a mansion, there is always room here And as long as my heart beats, My love for you shall be sound. To breathe the air you breathe and live the life I live Is the contract our souls keep. O lady, show me how else to love you… Where else to kiss, even places that hurt; Since your sugary words fell on my lemon heart Our love only knows years of drinking to this lemonade Who needs blankets with a love this warm? 24/11/2018 Copyright © All Rights Reserved
