i am not a poet
and certainly don't know poetry
but i can surely delineate
how your words
agonisingly tattooed to my heart
imprinted letter by letter
exclusively said to tatter
the bruised, hammered, worn-out, puny
piece of flesh under my ribcage
i am not a poet
and certainly don't know beautiful words
but i can still depict
the way i fall hard for you
once upon a time ago
