So, You want to be able to write beautiful poetry Some say it’s easy “Put a few words here and there. Hooray! A poem!” Well that’s all well and good but If you want to be really good at poetry It’s harder than that That stuff previously mentioned Is a brief gust of wind that catches you off guard Real poetry, words that hit Or like speeding stones crashing into your temple It’s gonna hurt because the poem hurt to write To be really good at poetry You have to lose The only thing you’ve ever loved or felt comfortable existing around Anyone can write good poems Once they lose the reason their heartbeat fluctuated ***** up the feeling of being whole Pealing off the skin to shed a new persona Burn their bodies as a sacrifice Paying homage to the only person who could control both heart and mind
You gotta watch your soul mate drown right before your eyes To write good poetry Like fishing with your Dad and you got the big fish on the line He’s excited for you and you really want that fish Till the line cuts lose And everything feels a whole lot simpler Also your father also looks depressed
Whether it’s for the Summer or two years You have to meet your soul mate Both of you recognize that you two were meant for each other Then He/She has to leave on His/Her own free will
Only then will you write good poetry And with a little more tragedy You could write better than me But don’t get your hopes up
