Poetry

I was driving away dark clouds
And kept you warm in cold nights
I used to buy you a beer or two
Red wine, cola just for you
 
I carved paper hearts every day
Counted shooting stars on my way
I prayed along to meet you in my dreams
But there we were always in opposite teams
 
I filmed a movie, jumped from the tree
Broke my leg, you laughed at me
Oh god I loved to watch you sleep
I was in way way too deep
 
I dyed my hair cause you wanted me to
Whatever you asked… I did it for you
Then you hated the color and I shaved it off
What was that? I used to call it love
 
I bought a ring, proposed on my knees
I already had names for our four kids
“Oh, NO, god! ! ” she said instead of YES
I shall put the ring away… that was NO, I guess
 
She’s happy now and I’m all alone
With beer, red wine and a broken bone
Looks like I became a poet too
Thanks! I’m really a mess because of you!
