I’M CANADIAN

He strides along

The cobblestone streets,

His turned up nose

Pointed proudly in the air.

When he smiles

A glow of self-worth

Overcomes his body

So much so

That those around him

Truly believe that he’s a Yankee.

I’m no bloody Yank!

He cries.

"Don’t insult me

You bloke.

I’m Canadian

God damn it!"

He’s hyped

Angry and offended

Ready to take the buddy on.

So eager

Like a beaver.

No one calls him a Yankee

And bloody gets away with it.

He’s Canadian

He’s smarter

Funnier

And a hell of a guy.

Please

Don’t insult him.

He’s Canadian

God damn it.

WHENEVER YOU MOVE

My heart breaks

Whenever you move.

I need you here

To relieve my mind

For another love

Like you

I would never find.

In your arms

I need to be

For with you

You’re all I need.

You know

My breaks

Whenever you move

So please don’t move.

Stay with me

Until the night is through

And I’ll show you

What my love can do.

Please.

Please.

Please.

Don’t leave me now.

A love like yours

Is rarely found.

You know my heart breaks

Whenever you move.

Please stay

Right where you are.

Let me be with you.

Let me show you

What I can do.

Let me show you

How it is

To truly love someone.

Give it up to me

And I’ll relieve

Your mind.

Sit down

Relax

Let me caress you

And massage your

Aching back.

My heart belongs

To you

Unconditionally.

From you

I will not stray.

Next to you

Is where I’m

Going to stay.

I’ll be
