This song socks

This song socks

A Poem by Joanna
"

This is probably the most humorous take on something that hurt really bad. I am trying to turn this into a song about someone I used to love.

"
The one rainy afternoon I can not forget
that one misty day when you and I first met
Walked into a puddle, then we were all set
and it didn't matter our shoes were all wet.

Later that night I felt rain on my feet
and we kissed in every single puddle of the street
I said I felt dry but you didn't believe me
so you surrendered your socks just for my feet.

I realized your socks felt quite alright
because they were the ones you gave me that night
Your socks made me so very glad that night
because the rain was the battle we needed to fight

This rainy afternoon I was feeling quite sore
like a brave soldier put down at bloody war
Decided it was time to look for something more
so I ran outside though I had put down my sword

I walked into a puddle, one I used to adore
sank into it but tried swimming to the shore
I went back home and quietly closed the door
wasn't quite as strong as I had been before.

Then I realized my socks didn't feel right
because they were the ones you gave me that night
My socks made me quite sad that night
because you should know they are yours to fight.

really like what you did with the puddle..."we kissed in every single puddle in the street"

great line...and then later when he was gone...you sank into the puddle and couldn't swim ashore..

a puddle...a little thing becomes a big thing...just like love becomes a big thing..starts out small...and if it doesn't work out, makes us feel like the puddle...we feel small.
