dating a writer
is like guessing the weather.
you think you know what you'll get,
but you never do.

you never know
because

she'll create a hero
from your weaknesses

and she'll write a great character,
from every last flaw.

she'll create a thousand plots  
from your worst nightmares.

she'll take every last thing you hate
and create something you'll love.

she'll turn your anger
into confessions of adoration,

and she'll make you,
everything you're not.

but worst of all,
she'll leave you wondering-
is it you she's in love with,
or things she's created from you?

but here's the beauty of it:

if you date a writer,
you'll never die.

even after we're through
i've made us permanent
long after our feelings have died
my heart will still beat in these poems
and i will still be the starry eyed girl stealing glances in each verse
and in 10 years time
i may see you again
and my head won't buzz, my stomach won't tumble, my cheeks won't flush
but these pages
are proof
that they once did.
writing is powerful

DOES LOVE HAVE TO BE REQUITED
FOR IT TO BE CONSIDERED TRUE?
actual question
flustered Oct 2015
you keep
swallowing your words
and then wonder
why you're never heard
where do they go?

the lonelier i am
the more i seemingly
love you

I feel safest when
my father's not around

i didn't mind getting
paper cuts
for he was
my favorite book
am i the only one leaving cracks in your spine?
