I hate poems

I'd always thought

That when you finally left me

I'd use that pain to write poems

The best ones Id ever written

Because the most passionate pieces of us

Are hurt.

Pain is the emotion we feel the deepest.

And I thought I'd be able to use it

In a way that cleansed me of you

But now that you're gone,

I see I was wrong.

I can't even lift up a pen.

In fact

I think I want to burn every ****

Paper I have scribbled words accross

Trying to describe you to people

Who would never understand.

Now that you're gone

I hate poetry.

I hate metaphors

I hate similes

I HATE THEM BECAUSE YOU YOURSELF ARE THE GREATEST POEM EVER WRITTEN.

And you're gone.
