Love a girl that writes
And live in the pages of her notebook

Love the girl that writes
And be the ink that wets her page

Love a girl that writes
And be her object of inspiration

Love a girl that writes
And let her paint you in words

Love a girl that writes
And be called metaphors and similes

Love a girl that writes
You will never starve a day in your life

Love a girl that writes
And eat stanzas and lines for the rest of your life

Love a girl that writes
