#andshit - Hello Poetry

What is one plus one. Well in one case its a child. One plus another is an angry first. Two plus one? Or is it jealousy? Has the story changed? And now i am lost. Was it one plus one, one plus two, or one plus three? Two minus one is just sad. Three minus two is straight up depressing. Four minus three would be unbearable. One plus one can sometimes equal one. When it doesnt equal two. Two plus one sometimes equals one and also two. Or three. Hopefully not one and one and one. Wait, wasnt there one more? One and one and two? Or one and two and one. Certainly not two and one and one, now that would be ridiculous. Where am i again? Am i lost? Have i lost myself? Have i lost my way? One and one can be love or lust. And its nearly impossible to tell the difference. Especially being in the midst of it. So when adding another variable to the equation, the dimension of the solution is intangible. What is right, what is wrong. Here i am questioning morals again like some kind of modern day philosopher. "The ratio of questions to answers in my life is not ideal."

Ive been writing poetry all night long Every day Every waking moment Which has come to me quite often recently. I lay awake for no other reason seemingly But to just be awake And then i write. "Might as well" And maybe it keeps me up And so i write more I figure i 'might as well' Maybe theres a lot of that going on in my life right now. Maybe its not a good thing But then again Maybe It ̶(̶i̶s̶?̶)̶ Is.

Ah, to be a little frog. Allow me to hide amongst 'your' belongings. Under the cushions of your swing set, upon your screen door, mayhaps even in your outside rainboots. You may shoo me away at once, if you must. I will be back. Ah, to be a little frog. I think i shall hop away now. Toodaloo. Until next time.

Little Frog

Ah, to be a little frog. Allow me to hide amongst 'your' belongings. Under the cushions of your swing set, upon your screen door, mayhaps even in your outside rainboots. You may shoo me away at once, if you must. I will be back. Ah, to be a little frog. I think i shall hop away now. Toodaloo. Until next time.

I came to you at night, in my dreams, but I awoke with cold feet and an ache in my heart. In my mind I brought you carnations and you brought me love.
