Sometimes I drive fast
to feel what it's like
to be alive again

Have you ever thought about falling in love with a poet?
It's such a simple notion because they too are people just like you
but the ability to constantly immortalize
Is that not attractive?
If you fall in love with a poet
alive you'll be for eternity
in a world that you
never could imagine
but one that they imagined you in.
It's a simple thought and a simple attraction that made an intricate
impact on their lives.
You are the reason they write
the reason that they can so innately describe what it is to be in love.
It's nice, isn't it?
To fall asleep knowing that this person is still awake writing about
how much more they're going to love you the next day.
Writing about the moment that you first caught their eye
the moment that they knew you too loved them.
Falling in love with a poet is a guaranteed way to live forever in their mind
to be the muse that they'll always use
to be the one person they'll never abuse.
Falling in love with a poet would be the adventure to end all
because in every word you would exist through 6 or 7 lifetimes.
So fall in love with a poet
because not only will their words convince
they're guaranteed to show it.

Poetry saved me when I was falling fast.

It started with a simple compilation of words holding me in their grasp,
then began to grow into a world that didn't leave me for last,
it became a place that embraced my intricate manipulation,
rearranging 26 letters after moments of contemplation,
my heart beats and my fingers write what is pondering through my mind,
Poetry saved me, I am no longer blind.
