Jot It Down Poem by Lady N

Fairytales don’t exist and happy endings are for the young,
But I think I’ve found my real life prince, and I’ll tell you he got me sprung,
Sprung up off his loving, it’s like I just can’t live without it,
And damn he’s been so good to me, that’s why I had to write about it,
I can’t go tell my momma, she’ll just say I don’t know what love is,
But what I do know is that it’s quite powerful, addictive, something like a drug is,
I know that it gives you no choice, it just comes and consumes you whole,
And it touches you way deep down inside the very pit of your soul,
Can’t tell my friends about it, they won’t understand cause they ain’t been here before,
They don’t know what it’s like to love someone, to be loved, and so much more,
But I have to tell someone about it, but I know no one would understand,
So I’m doing what I know how to do best, expressing my thoughts with this paper and pen,
I’m telling you that I found someone who loves me just for me,
He accepts me with my flaws and all, embraces them naturally,
And I too love him just the way that he is, I accept his “bad boy” kinda ways,
The smoking, the drinking, the violence, none of that matters when I see his face,
But I know that he is no good for me, but with myself I’ll continue to fight,
Because if loving him is wrong, then I’ll be damned if I wanna be right,
But I know nothing last forever, that’s why I had to jot this down,
Had to let someone know the way he makes me feel when he comes around,
But all good things must come to an end, as I know this one day is,
But the hurt and pain won’t change a thing because all that will matter is when I was his,
But when that day comes I’ll be a big girl about it, I’ll never forget him yet my heart will mend,
But our memories are now forever engraved into this paper because of this pen,
