I've been writing day by day
a song thats yours and yours alone
pen meets pad in an arcing affair
as words and notes spill from hands to paper
to find the right things to say

The tune sounds so hollow
as this song finds
my most beautiful melodies lacking
they don't do enough, soar enough
fly enough for you.

Words sounds strange
flitting off tongues from weird mouths
the bravest poetry I have
the strongest words I can say
aren't enough.

It doesn't matter how I write it
the words can never express
how much I live when I see your face
how much I weep when you're gone
how I am yours and yours alone
just like this song
These notes can never tell you
how much I dream of your smile
how much I would give to you
this music isn't enough
to tell you
I love you.

Beebs - I resonate to this sentiment. I think I keep writing because I am rarely able to hit it on the head. However, that's what keeps me writing - trying to capture on paper what my soul knows. - - well done, Buddah

wow. Alex, I have loved your poetry since the very first time I read your blog months ago. You have an amazing gift with your words. You have the power to move people with something that comes so simply to you and I hope you never underestimate this talent. As for this one, it brought me to tears. You will never realize how much it meant to me to read this. You are amazing and I can do nothing but stand in awe and be honored to be the subject of such a piece of art. Keep doing what you do ~ your words touch many more people than you know. I love you.
