I Wish I Could Write You Something

I'm sitting here, trying to find the right words, to write.

But, between being too tired, and over-thinking last night,

The words just aren't flowing, as much as I'd like.

I've tried to find the perfect line just for you, try as I might.

But none of the words I want to use, just seem right.

All I wanted to do is write the perfect poem.

For some reason, I have no idea where this is going.

I wish I could write about love taking flight.

Or, about lovers in the passion of the fire light?

For some reason, the words escape me and the rhythm's just not right.

Maybe I could write about walking on the beach at night?

I'm not sure, how to find, what I'm trying to express.

Or, how to uncover my thoughts in this poetic mess.

I wish I could write about the moon, love, or passion...I must confess.

Sometimes finding that perfect word is pretty hard, I guess.

I didn't want to give you a blank page of nothing.

I just wish I could write you something.

Something clever that would make you smile, with a sigh. 

Or maybe something that causes a tear from your eye? 

Or maybe I could write something a little naughty, to make you blush? 

But, for some reason my mind is all a rush. 

I just wanted to find a way to profess how I feel about you. 

But, I guess this really bad poem is just going to have to do. 

I guess, I can try to write something tomorrow night. 

Maybe by then I'll be able to get the words just right.
