Let Me Be
Let Me Be
by Lorenzo A. Fernandez Jr.Let me be your lover tonight.
Everything will be all right,
But not the meter of this poem.
But since I’m a lover
I can go on without a form.
Let me be your singer tonight.
Everything will be all right,
But not the music of this poem.
But since I’m a singer
I can do it without a tune.
Let me be your painter tonight.
Everything will be all right,
But not the body of this poem.
But since I’m a painter
I can make it without a model.
