Love Poem: Anyone Who Gave a Damn

Anyone Who Gave a Damn

Anyone who’s seen my face, could look at me
and tell of my sadness
Anyone who’s heard my voice or read my words
would call my life absurd,
I long to feel gladness.

If you look inside my heart 
you’ll see who I truly really am and
if you also have a heart we’ll find 
understanding for two of like kind
If you look inside my heart.

Anyone who gave a damn, would know I am
changed with the years, dear
Caring for you like I do
I’d take you back, without you I’d die dear
The words said here are quite clear.

So, anyone who gave a damn 
Would share their dreams with me and give a try
Hey, anyone who gives a damn.
Life's too short you're here for seconds and then you die
anyone who gave a damn
 

To the tune of “Anyone Who Had a Heart”
