I Don't Like That

I wrote some words with lots of meaning.

I wrote them strong and proud and bold.

I threw them all down, pen to paper.

I wrote them down to be told.

But it didn't happen. It lost all meaning.

When I wrote a bit too much.

So I scrapped it, threw it out.

I don't like that. Please don't touch.

I will fix it, mend it, make it.

Better then it was before.

Then I'll say that I don't like it.

I'll close the windows and the doors.

Opportunity met it's match.

When I passed them up and down.

Here I sit with paper with me.

But I don't like that any more
