I am the lost in get lost, and the “miss” in mistake
I’m the deed” when a misdeed’s at hand
I am the first call, when a bad call is about to be made
And the soft place, when you need to land.
I am the voice when all reason is missing
The instant message, when things start to drag
I am the lip gloss, before you start kissing
And the last one left holding the bag
I am the good in-the hurt of a goodbye
The Hail Mary when you need a prayer
I’m the good time you’re feeling when things are high
I am the even when things are unfair
Whatever you need, I can be it
There is nothing to changing my view
When the world has you taking too many hits
I can make it so that you feel brand new

Very good, nice job
Amazing ❤️💯📝
Just wonderful. Well done.
Holy shit, Kelli! This was magnificent. Your talent just knows no bounds. You should really make a book of your works, or two or three!!
This was soooooo wonderful! I loved it!
And then you follow the last one (which was hysterical), with this one, so meaningful & sentimental.
Very nice kelli, I once believed Neil Diamond wrote “I Am I Said”, with me in mind, you am what I wasn’t back then, 😳, love this
Awesime!!! Loving your play on words, "the good in-the hurt of goodbye" ♥️♥️💕
