advice to the guy who thinks writing poetry is boring and complicated:
the poems are about you.
so if you're a little narcissistic,
or ever wonder what i think about you,
i think you should change your mindset and read the things i write.
i'm casually spilling my heart out to you.
some songs are great at explaining how i feel,
but they're not my own words.
a verse here and there may say how i feel,
but when i write them myself,
it's absolutely myself and exactly how i feel.
and if you read between the lines hard enough,
you can see where i have my bad days and where i have my good days.
you can see where i feel like i'm letting go of you,
and where i'm holding onto you tighter than ever before.
lately, it's been a rollercoaster of both all in the same day.
some days i come to to terms with having to let you go,
some days it feels like i wouldn't be able to breathe without sitting next to you.
but if you ever think poetry is boring,
but you play with a poets heart and feelings, my advice for you is to
just know everything for next 6 months to a year will always be about you.
