Old Timey Love Poem written while drunk

I hear you laughter but I can’t see your face

Like a book you  read and loose your  page

Like a star you see that got  no warmth

Like a room  can’t remember why you came

Nothing changes not even names

Its just more of  more of the same

Feels like coming rain again and again

Came all day yesterday coming again today


I'm taking the long way round

Cause  I like the view

I'm in no hurry

There's nothing stands between me

And  blue

I'm feeling half crazy the other half mad

Loosing your woman is cards

With a bad hand

And all I can do is whistle this dumb old tune

Maybe the angels will hear me

Lord knows they been watching

That  know me well  and they know

I’ve had a few
