The Game Of Life
by Jody Galindo
Not even the sun shines brighter than you,
Your funny and sweet--and cute too.
The mockingbird chrips in the morning
Your scent is meaner than a lion roaring.
You don't even hurt a fly and you let it be,
Your heart lies within an island in the sea.
The beauty you have--but I see more,
Beloved you are, I quite adore.
Me and you are not the same,
Sometimes it feels it's only a game.
I await you feelings, I seek you heart;
100 days I'll wait, I won't be torn apart.
Your voice is as soft as the feathers in you pillows
It's as soothing as wind in the willows.
We are different, I know that;
What you don't know is--opposites attract.
Life has not been fair to me;
Rejection, hatred, anger; yet I've appealed to thee.
Three girls I tried; yet all I wanted was a girlfriend.
I just wanted to be with someone until the very end
Your a girl that I see,
Many guys that deserve thee.
I'll respect you, my dear;
Even if you only see me as a peer.
Love cannot be defined without your heart;
By the way do you need to go to K-mart?
Life is a beautiful thing--make it your best!
A companion you wish to seek--take a rest.
Life has many sacrifices, just look at me...
"No more football"--I didn't shout out with glee.
Surgery on a hernia was painful to bare,
Thinking of you kept me full of fresh air.
I hurt, I groaned and I moaned--lots of fear;
Yet my greatest concern was not standing near.
You put the butterflies in my stomach--you see...
I will try to be as charmful as can be.
School is important because I met you,
I think you need help in algebra 2.
Tired, I see you almost everyday;
One day and the next I will surely pray.
Most guys you see won't give you respect;
But when I see you, I think your perfect.
One day I was angry, and you were sad;
My only wish is for you not to get mad.
When you see me don't be stealth,
I've known you since we've met in health.
The days have gone by fast--haven't they?
I think so--so I will surely say...
I think you beautiful; inside and out--
This I truly say--Hey! I'll even shout!
I don't want to graduate without you knowing;
Many things in my heart have been growing.
What the world needs now is love...
You as pure as a white dove.
Soaring in the air, I see you fly--
I will always give you a hug when I say goodbye.
Too many years without a date...
I tell you now before it's too late.
You can't live life with a bunch of "what if's"...
Experience everything; that is my motif.
Even the best fall down sometimes,
Life is lived with many many rhymes.
Bad things happen--sharp like a knife--
Hey? What can I say? That's the game of life.
