I planted the worlds last flower
In the garden by the brook...
I lied when I said I didn't care
Before you walked away...
I borrowed your old picture
I just couldn't help myself...
Well I wrote a poem about my wife
But she said, "If you post it you die"...
A poem is a song that our souls need to sing
Written to the music our emotions bring...
I was going to write a sad poem
But my nephew shot himself...
You never choose to be a poet
The words somehow choose you...
Today I saw a diamond cry
For your beauty stole its shine...
In a brand new box of crayons
A love begins to sprout...
We buried a muse the other day
For a poet laid down his quill...
I wish I knew where tears come from
The eyes are where they show...
