The Way I Am

If you were falling, then I would catch you.
You need a light, I’d find a match.

Cuz I love the way you say good morning.
And you take me the way I am.

If you are chilly, here take my sweater.
Your head is aching, I’ll make it better.

Cuz I love the way you call me baby.
And you take me the way I am.

I’d buy you Rogaine if you start losing all your hair.
Sew on patches to all you tear.

Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise.
And you take me the way I am.

You take me the way I am.
You take me the way I am.

    Why wouldn’t I take you the way you are? You are sooo crafty and perfect! Who wants to live with a whiny b*tch? I swear, how many women are card carrying members of Backstabbers USA? The way you are is exactly what I love! Oh, and I enjoyed our date to Safeway!

    Heh, you’re so sweet to defend me. Consider the source, sweetie!. The world is filled with haters. It only motivates me to put MORE beauty in the world. I say, be original: be positive! :D I figure, if my 11 year old gets it, THAT’s what matters. Anyhow, LOVE YOU and our perfectly crafty life. Heh. ~W

  • This is so sweet! It is my anniversary today (#21) and I found your poem very sweet.

    I love your red shoes – I’ve never seen those. I’d buy some like them if I could.

    Oh, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Wow, 21. That’s fantastic. The poem is actually a song by Ingrid Michaelson, which I adore and makes me think of IZ every time I hear it. (Youtube it, it’s fantastic!) I hope you had a great day. Blessings!! ~W
