My Home

There is a little patch of grass
Just left of my front door
For a lawn
This patch will pass
I don’t need much
Brand names
And such and such
Although I  do not need a lot
I still want your touch
Still wish I made you blush
But I got this lawn
All these sweet bird songs
Right outside my window
And the grass
I don’t have to mow
That comes when I pay rent
Man that is money well spent
Inside
My dwelling
Where I reside
Yeah it’s all mine
Nice sofa to sit on
And I keep it clean
Just for me
You know what I mean
I’m not going out on dates
Oh god
What a waste
Rather sit at home and contemplate
Besides
I can’t seem to understand women
Oh though I may try
And well
You’re the only woman ever on my mind
Feel like I could have them all
But just say fuck it
Never even call
I like my home
I do whatever I want
Talk out loud
Or dance by myself
I am really just want to focus on my mental heath
Do things I like
And live in peace
Which I do
And I enjoy
But still I think of you
And how nice it is to do things with you
To spend time with you
I know my feelings are true
I know together there is nothing we cannot do
I want to see us through
I wish on a day soon
In this home it will be me and you

Please Be Me (again)

Here we are
I am at home
And so are you
Just each of us
Not two
I don’t know what to do
Other than say
I love you
So if you are trying to decide
Thinking who you want by your side
Please be me
Please let me be the one to hold you tenderly
Talk to you gently
Give you plenty
Most of all
Please be me as the one you call
For any reason
Or none at all
All I do now is wish
And wonder
What happened?
What’s up with this?
Please be me as the one you miss
But
Maybe not
I see how I am not the one you have sought
There were things for you I bought
And others I made with my heart
Still not enough for our love to start
Now
Again we live apart
It’s up to you
How or who you do choose
And even after all this time
The ups and the downs
The unread rhymes
And paintings left behind
I still hope that when you look for someone to see
Someone special
For yours just to be
I do
And will always hope
That, that one be me
