Bill Simmons Poet Rhyme

The Tin Heart

I could sit here and tell you all about me 
And the secrets that I do keep 
About my life and my feelings inside 
And my dreams just out of reach 

I could tell you about the love's in my life 
And of those that made me cry 
And of the passion's that I cling to so 
And for reasons I know not why 

I can tell you about thought happiness found 
And how I watched it die 
And how overwhelmed with hurt I become 
As alone I was inside 

I can tell you about how I feel inside 
And of life how I feel about things 
And how I searched a dictionary once 
For happiness and what it did mean 

I could tell you about this road that I chose 
And it's burdens with it's heavy loads 
And decisions I faced that I had to make 
Some were wrong and I do know 

I can tell you about the beauty I see 
I can see it all around me 
And how that I now feel that wisdom has come 
I can hear it even now as I speak 

I could tell you all about my life 
How I got up when I fell apart 
And what I've discovered that life's given me 
For behold is given, the tin heart.
