I have another poem for y’all today and truly, I wish I could just read it to you! I wish that you could hear it the way that I hear it … “Loyal” sounds a little like “royals” from the song by Lorde. Read it like that. And, the rest, I kinda hear in Taylor Swifts voice. Read it in Taylor’s soft, poet voice. That’s no problem right? Wink, wink. You got it!
Loyal
Loyal
I used to say
And you kept me on lockdown
Loyal
I used to say
And the fault was never yours
Loyal
They used to say
As it it were a good thing
But in your eyes, you always knew
I could never be
Loyal like you
Rush
It feels so good
To not be good today
Rush
I loved you
But I didn’t understand you
Rush
You loved me
But you couldn’t always stand me
Rush
People always change
They can’t stay the same
Gray
It’s how I always saw it
Wrong
It’s how you always felt it
And the spring still disappeared
And flowers fell away
And in the morning light
We’re still friends today
Loyal
Just like we’ve always been…
