see, i'm not that great at poetry

it's not that i can't rhyme.

i can, quite easily.

my problem, no my crime,

is that i don't want to get too mushy

(i need a thing to rhyme with; the land before time.)


i have had my share of love, and sadness

enough to write a book

i'm not inexperienced, i've had my first kiss

but there are things i don't want to bring out of their nook.

things that could stay hidden forever, i wish.

my feelings will probably come out as gobbledygook.


but i will try.

we will see

it'll probably end up with many saying, "oh my."

but i will let my work grow, like a tree.

so, please do not yet say goodbye.

i will put some feelings into my poetry.
