"you could push me off a cliff

and i would hit the ground

apologizing

for standing so close to the edge."

How to poet a life away

Toss the trite learned

Skip grammar mostly too

Rhyme or not is all yours

Step to drummer unheard

Believe in life yet untold

Read a thousand times

More than you write

Live, so you will know

What you are talking about

Take wild leaps in mind

Without losing it too far

Write not only about love

Although that’s all there

Really is or really is not

Fall in some love also

More than simply once

With not only your words

But others in thought

Wishing to poet too

i wish someone could tell me why
i feel this way
like im constanly
falling
deeper
and deeper
into this abyss
but i never crash
im just

but­ at least it doesnt hurt as much
since i left my heart
atop the cliff

I think I'm addicted to the pain of wanting someone I can't have.

I wish that our bodies
had services lights
the way our cars do.

That way,
wherever I went,
I could light up the room
the way I used to
before I got so sick.

i fall in love
every month or two
i never turn down
a fresh heart
to consume

it's not enough to have your love
you have to have my pain
because love is fickle
one day it will fade
but you'll still have my sorrow
happily long
forever after
I forget your name

everyone's got a suggestion
everyone has a solution
but nothing helps me sleep at night
and nothing takes my pain away
