Beautiful Scars Poet Couplet

Yes, I Am Guilty

It's Time To 'Fess Up Contest
Sponsor: Lin Lane


I know his biography inside and out and every song he has ever sung,
     a singer and songwriter from the Commodores with many awards won.
        I “Truly” believe the song “We Are The World” changed the music industry,
            yes, I am guilty of having a strange obsession with the famous Lionel Richie!

When I'm “Dancing On The Ceiling”, I can keep going “All Night Long”,
     I'm not sure if I have it inside of me to throw away his love songs.
        To my body I am sorry for tugging at those ol' heart strings,
            but I do believe I can't live without those adoring songs he sings!
