Play It For Me Once More Harvey

Play It For Me Once More Harvey


Oh, One True Love,
why does there have to be many?
I'm feeling things only felt for you
and my heart breaks
that I might break yours.


I can't move on
and yet I'm walking
creeping on things through doors
I found
and didn't think I'd need to find again.


And I tear
and crutch
as I'm down
and leapt
across away.


Fiddle-sticks;
picking up sticks
and mending
bird cages
that held a time.


Oh, One True Love,
there are many,
although you're gone
I'm finding few
who are true and love this one.

That is so sad. You have a way of making sadness very potent.

That being said, I'm sure one day you'll be with your true love finally/again, whomever they will happen to be/ still are. *hugs*
