(A)-(B) beauty inside of him, how he (C)s inside of me

how he makes me sing the ABCs because

I lose my words and am forced to trade them for letters.


(D)-(E)-a(F)fecting my mind, infecting

my speech, (G)-(H)- (I) spend my days dedicated to him,

and remain (J)aded from thinking about us, how he brings

(K)haos in his wake, how pure e(L)ectricity runs

through my veins every time I (M)- e(N)d up seeing

him again; (O) how he is my world, how he

changes the way I (P)iece together the box of life's

puzzle pieces; how we (Q)- a(R)e written in the stars

and (S)-(T)- yo(U) become my light.


and no matter my efforts I consistently (V)eer off course back into

his arms, his grace, (W)- e(X)periencing falling in

love with him all over again; my (Y)-(Z)eal for him

can never be matched.


With an ounce of his presence,

my mind falls blank and my words separate,

and I'm forced to let

my ABCs ring.

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.
