#15w * 4

by AthousandMidnightEpiphanies

*I assembled this ship Bits by bits Only to watch it get wrecked By you* And then it hurt so bad that, after that moment, it never hurt at all *I let you in Inch by inch only to have you leave me abandoned again* And maybe it was my fault to chase the light that burnt for someone else and to hope it would stay *I fell Slowly, carefully Then all at once; recklessly And hit the ground so hard* And maybe it is never the fall that hurts but it's the landing that makes us writhe in pain *I wrote you poems Word by word Only to have them Classified under "stupid clichés"* And maybe you were right, there is nothing I can write that has not been written before without making it a cliché *I gave you a place In my thoughts Day after day You became my (only) muse* And maybe if they knew, I'm just a poet who always wanted to be woven in words and be someone's poem.

Notes

I tried something new here. There are 15 words in each stanza followed by a description. It is not my best but this is the first time I have tried planning my poem and arranging the words in a particular manner so I hope you enjoy it
