A Poem by Rosauro Brillantes
"

A play on the titles of The Fray's song titles

"
All these long reminders
Because of all that and this
Keeps this thought inside of me
Of how beautiful "She Is"

So many others approach me
But I still want her instead
I'm sorry to say, but thoughts of you
Remain "Over My Head"

In the past she couldn't help me
She handed me the knife
Positive thoughts of just seeing you...
That's truly "How To Save A Life"

And sometimes when you're around me
I tend to act like a dunce
All I wanna do is,
Give you all of me "All At Once

You're probably starting to catch on
These are song titles from The Fray
You're the reason why I write
Without you I "Fall Away"

And if you ever feel
Like you're sad, or have the flu
I'll do my best to be there
And do my best to "Look After You"

Easily persuaded
All she need is pull the thread
If I must get on all fours
And do push ups to a "Hundred"

I really don't enjoy
How our plans are temporary like henna
Take you to nice places
Like California or "Vienna"

After our first kiss
I thought we'd last 3 minutes like a song
Now it's almost 3 months
Goddamn I was "Dead Wrong"

For the longest time
In saddness I've been doused
It went away when I met you
In that tiny "Little House"

If you're ever feeling low
Or if my love for you, you cannot see
Just know that I love you!
Babe, you gotta "Trust Me!"

Author's Note

Rosauro Brillantes
Me and my ex enjoyed listenning to The Fray, and so I thought I'd write her a poem about our favourite band by including their song titles at the end of each verse
