Rhyming with you

It’s better when things rhyme and I seem to rhyme with you.
This psychic something that we have is something too good to be true.

We don’t finish each others sentences, we speak perfectly in sync.
We feel each other’s feelings despite not knowing what we think.

It sounds like it should work well and it works out when we do
But when we can’t work out what’s not working out, we both just get confused.

Sometimes it’s almost eerie because we know it must be fate
And it’s harder to accept because we’ve known since our first date.

I know I’m feeling scared, so I know that you are too,
But I’m sure if we keep rhyming we can find our own way through.

In all of this emotion we might drive each other nuts
So let’s enjoy being distracted when we see each other’s butts.

Don’t sweat the big stuff

Don’t sweat the big stuff.
It’s probably fine and you’re doing fine.
You’re probably doing better than fine.
You’re probably doing great.
Even if it doesn’t feel fine–
It’s fine.
Don’t sweat the big stuff.
Don’t sweat the small stuff either.
But the big stuff?–
No, definitely don’t sweat that.

Fox in a box

Fox in a boxWhen I was walking home one day I saw a little fox,
His pointed nose protruding as he rummaged in a box.
He had a twinkle in his eye, for that I named him Sparky.
But the moment that I turned my back, he ran off with my car keys.

Let me live in your pocket

I want to be your pocket monster
So I can Pikachu.
To be your girl with Charmander
Heart beating close to you.

Put me in your shirt Kakuna
And free my life of Gloom.
You’re magic like Abra Kadabra
So I don’t need much room.

E-Raticate all of my Fearow—
You know that you’re Machamp.
We are the perfect Duduo:
A rascal and a scamp.

So please don’t Growlithe you get angry;
Subdue your Poliwrath.
But if you can’t, you’re still not Ghastly—
You always make me laugh.

You might have moments when you’re Krabby
And maybe so do I…
But even if I’m a Weedle cranky
I still think you’re divine.

At best I know it might sound Oddish
But life can’t Tauros apart
Because a world without your kisses
Would simply break my heart.

I’d really hate for me Jynx this;
I know it sounds Farfetch’d.
Let’s Rapidash or be Slowpokes,
Whatever you think’s best.

Just be brave and take a Chansey—
I promise I’ll be true.
Staryu, Starme, let’s be star-we
And let’s make Mew Mewtwo.

It’s not that tricky to de-Scyther
And I won’t Raichu code.
The only thing I want from life? A
Tiny pocket abode.
