Lonely

Song form poetry. I am really pleased with it. I think it could be improved. What do you think.

Put down! I can take it

Brushing my teeth I can take it

Dusting the floor I can take it

Lying in bed I can take it

Writing at home I can take it

Watching the tv I can take it

Cooking dinner I can take it

Not matter what I do I can take it

Singing this song reminds me of a time

when I couldn’t take it and I want it

again so much it hurts my baby.

 

Be my alone, on the end of a phone on my boner

prove to me I’m no longer a loner.

Be my alone. Together we can fall

together we know it’s tomorrow we care for

and yesterdays are made like never before.

 

Be my together alone. There is ambiguity

in this sentence. For together we can never be.

I like it too much. Much better to party and let it be.

Perhaps I know too much to care for another like you

who deserves so much. Go and get your rope and together

we will pull and push each other over, like play, it’s another yesterday

for us to remember and take to ourselves again.

 

Be my alone, on the end of a phone on my boner

prove to me I’m no longer a loner.

Be my alone. Together we can fall

together we know it’s tomorrow we care for

and yesterdays are made like never before.

 

All those bridges over all those rivers and time

leads you to believe that I can be mine alone

and waiting never aching for your touch again

Its so much better than before without the pain of

tommorow and yesterday just the present and here today.

 

Be my alone, on the end of a phone on my boner

prove to me I’m no longer a loner.

Be my alone. Together we can fall

together we know it’s tomorrow we care for

and yesterdays are made like never before.
