I've saved the summer
And I give it all to you
To hold on winter morning
When the snow is new
I've saved some sunlight
If you should ever need
A place away from darkness
Where your mind can feed
And for myself I've kept your smile
When you were but nineteen
Till you're older you'll not know
What brave young smiles can mean
I know no answers
To help you on your way
The answers lie somewhere
At the bottom of the day
But if you've a need for love
I'll give you all I own
It might help you down the road
Till you've found your own
- Rod Mckuen
Simply beautiful. It reminded me of the obsession I once had, few years ago. The obsession of writing poetry when I was truly, deeply, madly in love. And everything has changed ever since.
Any lovelies like this to be recommended from you? :)
