You'Ve Got Me Lifted Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel your lift.
You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel uplifted.

You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel your lift.
You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel uplifted.

Before you came I felt I fell off the Earth.
And,
Before you came I had no feeling of self worth.

You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel your lift.
You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel uplifted.
Before you came I had no feeling of self worth.
And,
Before you came some people had me feeling like dirt.
With no pride.
Or dignity inside.

You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel your lift.
You've got me filled with helium.
And I feel uplifted.
Before you came some people had me feeling like dirt.
With no pride.
Or dignity inside.
Before you came I had no feeling of self worth.
But pride I feel inside.
And...
You've got me lifted.
Not livid.
But LIFTED.
