Faithfully (A poem by Lia Fairchild)

Delightfully you use my pleasures, controlling me day and night

You alone know my inner workings and I rarely put up a fight

I have to admit you turn me on; anytime, anywhere, in your car, in your bed

Am I so easily read?

At times I am predictable. I bring you comfort, solace, make you feel at ease

But sometimes you like surprises, you want a little tease

I really don’t mind that you keep me hidden; I’m always close to your heart

When I play for you it is our little secret, until the day that we part

I know that day will come, when you’ll want something more

Looking online or walking through a store

You’ve finally found it; it’s perfect in so many ways 

That’s when you realize this old iPod has seen its better days

No hard feelings; our time spent was long

But don’t even think I’ll let you transfer one single song
