This is the second poem that Nick found. He found this along with Say You Love Me and one other that we never came up with a title for...I think I'll call it Homesick. But, yeah, umm....I was at my great grandmother's house when I wrote all of them and I missed him like freakin crazy so I wanted to write because it was comforting. But I didn't have my poetry journal so I put them into my Notepad on my cell phone. Nick was hanging on to my phone for me the next week and it didn't occur to me that they were still on there until AFTER he found them. I was like...embarassed to the point of speachlessness. But because of the fact that he's Nick, he was all ego-trippin over it and he was being sweet and encouraging and shit which was strange because I'd expected him to be like...weirded out. But he actually LIKED them. So, this is the second one. It was an attempt at a song but I decided to leave it a poem.
What does it take to make it?
What declares that love is true?
Is this a mistake that I'm making?
Tho I don't regret it with you...
How many clouds in the sky and
How many rocks on the shore?
Scratched up on my knees
And begging you please
Cuz I just can't take any more.
Some say love
Love is a river
Sometimes you'll get carried away
Some say love, love, love
Love is a shelter
It's what brightens your day
And it makes everything okay
Through all of the things that you're saying
How much of these words are true?
Down on my knees and I'm praying
Cuz I just can't stop loving you
I think that's the one that made him cry. He read them in order, so...
