love and me

my muse by anelephantcant

Click here to hear the poet read his words:

love and me

now as I watch you dancing
I think of what I see
one more sweet woman quite enchanted
by life and love and me

we met we laughed we fell in love
we spent such happy times
you created works of magic
and I wrote silly rhymes

you said my words inspired you
helped you see different views
for you I wrote my love songs
you were my heart my muse

and so I scarcely noticed
your first uncertain pause
I was still blind while you observed
my many faults and countless flaws

so then we slowly fell apart
my truths no more believed
you’d said I was your perfect man
but which of us truly deceived

now as I watch you walk away
I think of what I see
one more sweet woman disappointed
by life and love and me
