A Song For You
I sing for you
Out of tune
Off key
Forgetting lyrics
Remembering longing
I perch
On your heart
I whisper in your ear
Tiptoeing lightly
Across your lashes
I steal a kiss
You flick
And blink
And flick
Again
I fly away
Leaving my song
doo wop doo wop
doo wop doo ditty ditty wop
Nikki Giovanni
Meneame
