Never date a poet,
for the words created-
will spark the fire,
that you're sure to regret.

Never date a poet,
for every night he thinks
of you,
for every dream he wishes
to come true,
and his words will hurt
like a bullet.

Never date a poet,
for every paper written with
ink,
and every candle that he
has lit,
for his words are without
merit.

Never date a poet,
for every ink that is with
every stroke,
for strands of feelings that
fuses in it,
You have become his palette.

Never date a poet,
for he wanders the vast
universe,
searching through valleys and
worlds unknown,
You will only become a planet.

Never date a poet,
for his pain expresses a thousand
knives,
and his joy reveals the field of
spring,
His feelings will never set.

Never date a poet,
for you yourself know that its
hard,
harder than steel or of that a
diamond shard,
Your birthdays and anniversaries
he will never forget.

Never date a poet,
for his words are more sharper
than knives,
like swords that can take lives,
Be vigilant for when he's quiet.

Never date a poet,
for he can make his life a story,
he can garner other peoples
sympathy,
For sure he'll remember every
moment to the last minute.poet
