Tell me the stars don’t shine
That truth can be confined
That love ain’t divine
And I’ll believe you
But don’t tell me that she is not mine
For I won’t
…
Tell me the sun is square
There’s no magic in the air
That God ain’t fair
And I’ll believe you
But don’t tell me that she doesn’t care
For I won’t
…
Tell me the birds aren’t free
Oceans are empty
God has no mercy
And I’ll believe you
But don’t tell me that she isn’t made for me
For I won’t

Awesome lovely work…… Only a true love makes you do that…. Beautiful!

You’re a better poet than Lang Leav. Honestly. You should compile everything and create a book. I love this!

Thank you. I had to search Lang. She seems to be quite good. So thanks for the compliment.

So lovely. It’s refreshing when someone actually rhymes and meters something these days…. I could hear this as I read it. I read it to my friend sitting here, just now. It felt like lyrics, or a great slam poetry piece, or monologue.
