I had a dream and in the dream I heard a song I hadn't heard before. The first four lines below were all that I heard from the song in the dream. I wrote the rest based on the song. I don't know how to write songs but I like to hope this poem could be the rest of the song.
I've been wanting to save you
All this time
For I feel your love is
One of a kind
All it took was one look
In your eyes
I've been wanting to save you
All this time
I know it's not my part
But I act it anyway in the dark
'Cause no matter what I do
You live in my heart
I know I'm a statue
As you walk by
I want to but I can't move
Inside silently I cry
I know it's not in the cards
To be the art in your heart
But no matter what I do
I imagine you're in my arms
You deserve your own salute
As you walk by
How fluidly I would move
While I hold your gaze with mine
I know it's not my part
But I act it anyway in the dark
'Cause no matter what I do
You live in my heart
Yeah, I know it's not in the cards
To be the art in your heart
But no matter what I do
I imagine you're in my arms
You're ace of spades
Always digging deeper into my heart
