I'm a new writer
And I already need time away from writing
Because all I want to write about
is you
When I think about writing
When I think about poetry
You are the first and the only thing
that comes into my mind
You are poetry incarnate
You are my muse
and I need you to be not
I need time away from poetry
because I see you in every one
I said I'll stop for a while
but here I am again
including you in my writing
Writing about me not wanting to write about you
It hurts
Every time I write, it hurts
As it keeps reminding me
that I didn't get you
That in this world,
there's not a happy ending story
of you and me

Writing about me not wanting to write about you

Every time I write, it hurts
As it keeps reminding me
