Journey, pt.1

Simple-Man87

I've sang to you ballads of love

And arrived with flowers galore

Just for you, to prove my love

Of your heart, and beauty that I adore,

With you at my side, I'd wish for nothing more.

 

With your lips Rose in color

I'd imagine textured just the same

Understand, for me there is no other

So I continue this cat and mouse game,

I'd climb the vines to your bedroom just to speak your name.

 

But another has drawn your eyes, I've noticed

A man with more brawn than education

Of the men around resembling Atlas, he's the closest

Lust appears to be his infatuation,

Selfishness, his only inclination.

 

As I look up at you from the dirt at his feet

A shooting star sails across the night sky

"If I bring you that star, will you choose me?"

She grabs her chest and releases a surprised sigh,

For if I accomplish this, I will be her guy.

 

So I saddle up and ride north

Towards this falling star I saw

Knowing nothing of what will come forth

As I jump over the guarded wall,

Into the forest I go, to prove my love to her, once and for all.
