I left the window open
And in came death
She showed me her wristwatch
And counted my pending breaths
I said, “I am too busy
I have a poem to write
We can go out later
How about Friday night?”
She had a serious look upon her
She gave me a blank stare
She had her motorbike ready
To take me away from there
She grabbed my hand to force me
I was firm in my stand
I tried reasoning with her
She failed to understand
I punched her in the face
And then in the gut
A lightning quick kung-fu kick
A jab and an upper cut
She finally admitted defeat
Sped away on her bike
But not before expressing
Towards me a strong dislike
I couldn’t care less about her
She may think of me as a nut
I had a poem to finish
So I slammed the window shut

I left the window open and a million dollars flew in
I couldn’t believe my luck so I started countin’
It was really a million dollars so I started dreamin’
Oh the dreams I had as the million dollars flew in
So began my daydreamin’
I started plannin’ and schemin’
How it would be accruin’
The million dollars that flew in
But before I got into thinkin’
How I would be eatin’ drinkin’
And what else I’d be doin’
Of the million dollars that flew in
The million dollars flew out
Just as they blew in, they blew out
There was very little I can do about
The million dollars that flew out

I left the window open
And a croaking frog jumped in
I was startled as always
This was just the beginnin’
She found a place on my desk
Asked me if I had any memory
Whether I had seen her before
Did she look familiar to me?
She kept talking about things
Reincarnations and past life
Seems I married her ages ago
She was my rightful wife
She looked at me with wide eyes
Asked what I was to do about
I picked her gently in my arms
And I threw the croaking frog out

I left the window open and in came a clone
While I was all alone
He looked around my home
Claimed to be his own
I had him known
I’ll have him thrown
If he doesn’t walk out on his own
He didn’t like my tone
He gave a loud groan
Lifted me up from my throne
Threw me out with my phone
Damn we even share a heart of stone
…
Next day while he was alone
Through the same window in my home
I surprised the clone
Lifted him from my throne
Had him thrown
…
Now me and my clone
Play this game all day long
I’ve even forgotten
Who’s the real one

I left the window open
And God came in
My hands began to tremble
My feet were shakin’
He stood there confused
Glanced around for a while
He examined my face
And then gave a wry smile
“I was supposed to meet,” He said
“A diminutive mouse”
“There are none around here.” I said
“You’ve got the wrong house”
“I guess I’d be leaving.” He said
“Is there anything you want from me?”
“I have quite a collection.” I said
“Can I have a selfie?”

I left the window open and in came a genie
He granted me three wishes but I asked for many
He didn’t budge at all so I finally agreed
“Will they come true?”, I asked. “Oh yes, indeed.”
So I asked for money and a smokin’ hot wife
I also asked the genie for a better life
He burst out laughing. He asked me if I was a clown
He had never heard a better joke from anyone in town
I stood there confused watching the genie laugh
At my very expense, he had a chuckle enough
“If you never intended, why sneak in at all
To grant me three wishes when nobody called?”
The genie said, “I can give you gold and cash
Litter this little house of yours with diamond studded trash
But I can’t grant you a better life than the one you’ve already got
If you also have for yourself a wife who’s smokin’ hot.”

I left the window open
And a dame came in
Pretty and beautiful
She found a spot within
A little soft corner in
The depths of my heart
She stayed for a little while
Then things fell apart
She left me and was gone
Except her memory
Now she’ll be in my head
As an unsolved mystery
Where would she be now?
Is there a clue to show?
I wonder sometimes why
She came in through the window

Well the day has arrived
Like it does every year
The city’s painted red
All I see is cheer
Young boys and girls
Ladies with their men
Are falling for each other
All over again
Everyone seems happy
They’re all in a good mood
I am feeling lonely
I ain’t feeling good
Quit reading further
If you’re having a good time
I am going to rant about
Not having a valentine
It’s terrible to be alone
On such a lovely day
I wish I had a sweetheart
To gift her a bouquet
Yesterday I had Molly
I had Peggy Sue
They found out about each other
Now I’m alone and blue
I’m sitting in this bar
Drinking a lonely beer
I’m so glad this day
Comes only once a year

I met a stupid man today
Full of ego and pride
I tried to avoid him but
He wouldn’t leave my side
He kept staring back at me
With a curious look
Like I was some petty thief
A demon or a crook
I asked him the reason why
But he just wouldn’t say
He asked me the same thing
It continued all day
Then he began arguing
Shouting at me
So I screamed back at him
With no mercy
The argument came to a point
Things went out of place
Things soon became heated
I punched him in the face
It only hurt my knuckles
It’s still bleeding a lot
He was too sharp for me
I hit the wrong spot
I won’t be seeing him again
No stupidity anymore
I’d buy myself a new mirror
Old lays broken on the floor

Show me love, show me love
That’s what I told my love
She looked up at the skies above
She’s saving it for a rainy day
…
Be with me, stay with me
Without her I feel lonely
But she doesn’t quite agree
She’s saving love for a rainy day
…
When it’s winter, when it’s spring
Love me for everything
But she doesn’t hear Monsoon sing
So she’s saving all her love
…
Now it has begun to rain
I told her not to abstain
Show me all her lovin’ again
But she didn’t show me love
…
Now I don’t know what to say
She said she didn’t mean it that way
She isn’t literally in any way
Saving her love for a rainy day
…
I wonder if she’ll ever show me
How her love was saved for me
If it will ever come my way
She’s saving love for a rainy day
