Poetry and some other shit

Id suck at writing stories

I could never write a story.

like, never.

I don't get how authors do it.

Because you have to do all the stuff with the characters and the plot and all that jazz

and there has to be like

an intro and suspense and a climax and a conclusion and everything

has to tie up at the end with a big red bow and work perfectly and everything

has to be
so
thought
out.

I could never express my thoughts like that.

Lord knows my thoughts aren't that organized.

But like, with poetry

there are no rules.

There's a rhythm I can create with my fingers on the keyboard

that I can feel thumping in my chest.

My thoughts work in that rhythm.

especially when I'm anxious or depressed, I can take the feelings and

make a waltz

1, 2-3

1, 2-3.

And i see the next line

and i see how it works.

And i see how,

in the end,

it will all tie up in a

haphazardly tied,

uneven,

big red bow.
