The poetry keeps beating me

A Simple Love Song


Its getting late and
I should really be in bed
Under cover safe and sound
But the thought of you
Is running through my head

All I can do is write a simple love song
All I can do is set down feeble words
All I can do is write a simple love song
And sit and hope my song is heard

All the things we know and thrive upon
Will one day reach their timely end.
All the things that make us, 
Us, will fade into the dirt
Nothing left to stand for you or I

Except for those words I have put
In a simple love song

All I can do is write a simple love song
All I can do is set down feeble words
All I can do is write a simple love song
And sit and hope my song is heard

My love, to love and my heart Is to give freely, 
Be it foolish. Be it wise 
I am my own man and shall not compromise
Upon the fact I love you and always will
Until the day when I close my eyes 

And breathe my last with a gentle sigh
And Till that time comes

All I can do is write a simple love song
All I can do is set down feeble words
All I can do is write a simple love song
And sit and hope my song is heard
