Ode to Taylor Swift
Taylor,
I know you get a lot of crap
From this silly outside world.
They say you’re unoriginal,
That you can’t write about anything but
Full or broken hearts,
That all your songs sound the same.
To be honest, that’s what I
Absolutely adore about you.
Sparks flying, singing your song,
Tell me why shouldn’t you be you?
You write about what you know,
Your dreams and girlish charms,
Your own place in...
