Poets are.. Forgetful. But they remember everything. They forget appointments,and what time dinner is.But they remember what you wore,and how you smelled… On that first date. They remember every story you've ever told them- like ever. But forget what you just said. They don't remember to water the plants,or to take out the trash. But they don't forget how to make you laugh. Poets are forgetful. Because...they are busy remembering the important things. Like how to love someone with all their heart. Randy McPeek

Poets are...
I guess you're right And there's, nothing anyone can do about it I can no longer doubt it I'm a poet. A conveyer of feelings through the written word. Who helps others heal their pain by revisiting old hurts It's a strange occupation And interesting conversation to have So when people ask me,  Nero, what are you? I can say that I'm many things. Insecure, unsafe, lost, fearful of my own future Disabled, confused, alone, and wounded beyond suture. But above all else, I AM A POET
