I wrote a poem to the beat of Let Her Go by Passenger
I’ve got something
But it’s not a lot.
I’ve got sunlight
But I want the rain.
I’ve got love
And I want some more.
I’ve got demons
But I let ‘em be.
I’ve got eyes
That don’t always see.
I’ve got legs
That won’t always run.
I’ve got a heart
And I hope it beats.
I’ve got a soul
Somewhere deep inside.
I’ve got time
To dream a dream.
I’ve got stars
To count at night.
I’ve got screams
That interfere.
I’ve got a feeling
Something isn’t right.
I’ve got nothing
We ain’t got nothing
If we cannot act.
col song...and i can hear the rhythm in your words....i like that last bit...we def have to be willing and ready to act....or not....
