Ode to GNR

When exactly was it,
that you took hold?
When you went in my eardrums,
and took control?
It’s been a while now,
since it all began.
Since I heard the first melody,
but finally I understand.
It’s not a mistake.
No, no, not an accident
that you’re my favorite band.
Indeed it was pre-meditated.
Yes, ‘twas written in the stars.
That awesome sound of yours,
leaves me quite inebriated.
Estranged…
You Could Be Mine…
Where should I begin?
I couldn’t ask for more.
Or am I just
Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door?
You rock me to the bone,
straight down to the core.
How ‘bout Mr. Brownstone?
Without you, I’d be lost.
I’d have no sense.
But I know, I know,
just a lil’ Patience.
Will I ever see a tour?
No, not a chance.
That’s long gone,
but I’ll have to endure.
I can say I’ve see Slash,
Say I’ve seen Duff,
Say I’ve seen Matt,
But is that enough?
Some say yes.
Some say no.
I wish I knew.
But to see Axl…?
I’d be born anew.
He’s my hero, ok?
From then,
to this day.
What else can I say?
