I never liked poetry.
Well, not never liked,
I just never got into it.

So I wonder why I love doing it so much.

I got into music,
even though I can’t sing.
I can’t rap.
I can only play a bit of piano.

I guess I have almost no musical talent.
I just love writing lyrics.

I love writing and rhyming,
so maybe I love poetry.

I don’t know any poets, though.
I know Shakespeare
and Edgar Allan Poe.
That’s pretty much it.

Does that make me some kind of poetry fraud?

I thought about being a poet a lot,
but nobody really cares about poetry anymore.
I don’t know anyone that would care—
even I didn’t care for the longest time.

I doubt it pays well,
so I might just be stuck with music.

I want to do poetry, though.
These poems
has been the most fulfilling thing
I’ve ever done in my life.

And I just started writing
and nobody knows about it.
