A Literary Love Song
Oh how I wish that you were here with me
To listen to the stupid song I sing
Adjectives and nouns for all to hear
From an oxymoron to your ear
You're every comma and every quote
Of every word in every sentence that I wrote
From my mouth do these words spew
Every single syllable for you
If I string the words together right
You should see, you should be
With me tonight
Please open your thesaurus wide
So I can put my dictionary inside
My participle's long been dangling
Please conjugate me if you can
You're every vowel in every verb
And every word of every paragraph and blurb
From my mouth do these words spew
Every single syllable for you
If I string the words together right
You should see, you should be
With me tonight
I don't wanna be a footnote
Capitalize me and indent me
Please add my chapter to your index
I need your plagiarism
You give great definition
Dewey decimal system
If you don't trust me
Check my bibliography
And hear me sing
From my mouth do these words spew
Every single syllable for you
If I string the words together right
You should see, you should be
With me tonight
