By Your Side

I could be poor
slick with grease and grime
and still our love
would stand the test of time

Whether in the car
or on Siesta's Sand
The only thing I need to feel
is the warmth of your hand

In the hallways at school
or anywhere in this world
I don't quite fit anywhere
unless I am your girl

The only place
that I belong...
is being the melody
to your sweet love song

I am the strum
You are the melody
in a song entitled
"Sweet Serenity"

If you really want
what is best for me
then you'll understand
in your arms is where I should be...

    Where did you say you were from again? There is a beach about 30 minutes away from me named siesta key. It's one of the top 10 beaches in the world. That line really stuck out for me. Anywayz, Great poem! One of my favorites!

      My mother and father had their honeymoon on siesta something... They have a photo of their wedding rings in the sand, and it says siesta in pretty script. So that was the inspiration fot that line. The picture is on the computer desk at home, and I happened to be looking right at it when I read this.

    Beautiful poem

    I like the flow in this piece and the message of love you are feeling. An even flow in each stanza helps to finalise this read

    Let the ink flow and your fingers dance
