Okay, Maybe I Am

Okay…maybe I am Some call me romantic But I don’t think that’s true I just write down these feelings I have inside for you I have no formal training No poetry degree Just a pen and paper I keep in front of me So when I think about you Which happens all the time I scribble out some phrases That often seem to rhyme Perhaps they look like verses They’re kept in groups of four And filled with my affection For someone I adore And yes some are poetic Though that is not my plan I just want you forever I want to be your man Okay…they sound romantic And maybe I am too But it’s not really all that hard To write down I love you

Out of all your poems, (and you have plenty that I like) I love this one the best. It's so elegantly simple ... it's me really. Fits my personality to a tee. A truly beautiful poem. Penned by a modest yet gifted romantic poet. You're at the top of your game on this one. Love and joy to you.

You don't need training to write from the heart. Your heart is training you to write with a heart.

You're one of the best romantic writers.. yes being in love makes it easy, I'm sure, but not everyone who is in love can write so eloquently. You have a gift.
