“I Am Like You Old Song” by Ruth Chen

“I Am Like You Old Song” by Ruth Chen
March 2, 2020 Nā Leo Literary Review

I am like you old song. 

Like you, 

Full of deep thoughts. 

Not as old as you, 

But as lovable, 

As rhythmically. 

Full of life. 

Meaningful 

Like you. 

Sometimes sad, 

Happy, nostalgic, confused. 

Like you. 

I am like you, 

So true, 

So real. 

Structured, well settled. 

I am like you old song 

Loyal, pleasant, bright. 

I am like you old song, 

Not easy to understand 

And not made to be understood. 

I am like you old song 

So touching, 

So deep, 

So sad. 

I am like you old song.
