Influences

By birksy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

If I'd designed this room, How it was supposed to look and feel, You'd only see disjointed ornaments, Each one very nice in their solitary standing, But nothing would go together, It would be my room. But my eye tells me of you're influences and likes, And when the night falls and the lights come on, You're around in every golden wall and dark shadow, Giving a life not only to fools like me, But to everything you do, I just wanted you to know.
