It's just that
i'd like someone to
write for me
just once
i'd like to be the object of affection
i'd like for someone to find
that beauty my mother keeps telling me
i have inside
i'm not complaining
but you see
i'd just like to be the
poem
and not the poet
for once
we do not write poetry
we write mirrors
which are held up
to curious faces
who read
looking for their
own reflections
We used to watch the sky together
In the evening - we hated daylight
Blue is overrated, the sun is a star
Why not see many at once?

But stars are suns, sun is star
It's now all pointless
As we

Used

To watch the sky together.

i am one wave in a storm
surrounded by hundreds of others
headed to shore to crash and self destruct
