All I Have Is Me

 

 All I have is love.

All I have is me.

All I have is my heart on my sleeve.

Can't give you anything baby,

Cause all I have is me.

 

 We have been through thick.

We have been through thin.

We have been through now and we've been through then.

We'll go through it together baby,

Cause we have been through when.

 

 I've done it once

Too many times

Left everything,

without a dime.

Holes in my pockets

and dirt on my jeans

I've left town thinkin,

I'll find everything.

 

 So I was wrong

So I was down

I was desperate

and I've been around

So I've been kicked

So I've been beat.

I ain't got nothin to give baby,

Cause all I have is me.

 

 All I have is love.

All I have is me.

All I have is my heart on my sleeve.

Can't give you anything baby,

Cause all I have is me.

 

 One out in the world.

Two are on the way.

So I pray that I'll

make it one more day.

I might not have anything

but my heart to give.

Shed your tears on my sleeve baby,

I will give you me.

 

 All I have is love.

All I have is me.

All I have is my hear on my sleeve.

Can't give you anything baby,

Cause all I have is me.

 

 All I have is love.

All I have is me.

All I have is my heart on my sleeve.

Can't give you anything baby,

Cause all I have is me.

And "this" is not just another love song. A lot of cliche lines that would normally irritate me. But then you go adding your own twist:

One out in the world.
Two are on the way.
So I pray that I'll
make it one more day.
I might not have anything
but my heart to give.
Shed your tears on my sleeve baby,
I will give you me.

You always pour your heart out. Good stuff.

[Crystal Marie Dreier]

I love this very much!

[realmwriter]

Thank You very much...!

[AJ Kristiansen]

Great work realmwriter... :) love your down to earthiness in the way that you write... about love, about brokeness, about looking for so much and finding nothing... but yourself and offering that to her... that life can be tough but you've got to get on with it... I like the rhythm and I've probably said it before but I can almost hear a melody with some of your poems because they have a 'song' element to them.. not sure if you have a guitar or piano??? :) Great job!!

[realmwriter]

I wish I could play both piano and guitar but sadly I cannot. I do intend to learn though. Thank you for your insite into my poem. I do write some of my poems with lyrical intent...!

[AJ Kristiansen]

Go for it realmwriter! Grab hold of your dreams with both hands!!! :)

[realmwriter]

Oh, one way or the other I will learn how to play at least the guitar, at first, perhaps the piano later...!

[AJ Kristiansen]

Great!!! Good on you!!! :)

Beautifully expressed emotions. I love the rhythm and the rhymes. Just one correction: "sleave" should be "sleeve".

[realmwriter]

Thank you very much. Hate it when I do that. I will make the correction. Thanx for pointing it out...!
