A Literary Love Song

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
