A lyrical poem.

VERSE 1

Something quite endearing
about the way you choose to be.
It took me such a long time,
to open my eyes, but now I see.

CHORUS

So no matter what happens,
don’t you ever change.
No matter what the future brings,
don’t you ever change.
When things start to go wrong,
don’t you ever change.
You are perfect the way you are,
so don’t you ever change.

VERSE 2

It took quite a while,
to reach this train of thought.
The memories that return,
were ones that you brought.

CHORUS

So no matter what happens,
don’t you ever change.
No matter what the future brings,
don’t you ever change.
When things start to go wrong,
don’t you ever change.
You are perfect the way you are,
so don’t you ever change.

    :-) I wish this was about me – the technical aspects remind me of the old-fashioned type of poetry – the traditional lyrical type. I loved this because the readers are being addressed directly – one can understand the feeling behind this poem.
