Other Than That
11/11/2020
Unlike most, just speaking facts
At times I met my match
And had to start over from scratch
Wasn't out to put others on blast
I'm just not one to hide behind a mask
Focused on the task
A helping hand was lent, regardless of if asked
This life moves oh so fast
I ended up in first, and I ended up in last
A cave filled with life, including bats
A diminishing forest :( , with a colony of rats
A neighborhood with sick or healthy dogs and cats
You're more than quite the catch
Excuse me Ma'am you caught my eye from first glance
While I got the chance
I'd like to ask
If you'd like to go out eat and maybe dance
Before such an opportunity has passed
Perhaps, I can take you out to a fine restaurant with class
Or if you'd prefer, we can have a picnic on the grass
My goal is toward a successful path
I have no feelings of wrath
To me life is not just about cash
I'm looking for my other half
Other than that
I've always got you and your back
If you want it, just ask
Toward each other, fixing any gap
Not talking any cap (lies) or crap
If we want to, traveling around the globe, with or w/o a map
You make me feel so good, and you make me laugh
I wouldn't take a single thing back
Just staying on track
And making a pact
Doing well at saving cash
In a world so vast
Moving forward, not staying in the past
Alas
No longer aghast
Was able to Avast
