My 3 (maybe 4) Readers get a special treat today; poetry! Now you may be saying to yourself "poetry is all we get on this fucking blog!", but this is poetry with a story behind it. When I was around 14-15 I was head over heels for someone. It was kind of old school in that I didn't know her and never talked to her, but I really thought I was in love. I obviously wasn't and I look back a bit embarrassed, but the point of the story is I used to stay up so many nights because I couldn't sleep because of these feelings and wrote stupid poetry. I just found them again and am gonna make you read my favorites. Jake already heard these on one of our Late Night Drunk Poetry Jams. Here you go and my loyal readers, don't laugh too hard!
What If?
What if you and I fell in love?
What if you cared?
Would this ever be?
No, of course not.
Love will never happen to me.
But,
What if...
You did care about me?
What if there is a happy ending?
Maybe I don't have to be Prince Charming
could it be,
Love with me?
TALE OF A BROKEN HEART
Trying to receive love.
Asking for a dance.
Or just a chance
You tell me away
And say
"Maybe another day"
A TALE OF A BROKEN HEART
I ask for your signature
Doing so very mature
You tell me away
And say,
"You don't deserve my wonderful art"
A TALE OF A BROKEN HEART
You say "Hi" in the hall
So I give you a call
To see if it is fate
That will give us a first date
Your reply is simple and slow
Your reply is "no"
A TALE OF A BROKEN HEART
I settle at home
After the reply on the phone
I take a knife to my wrists
Wishing that I never exist
As I slit
The thought of what I was doing
This death I was pursuing
I tried to stop the blood
But it came on like a flood
Then I was finally done
THE RESULT OF A BROKEN HEART
Life 4 Love
It sounds odd that someone would give their life 4 love
But that someone would be me
I would give my life for her to love me
If it will never be
Than I hope that sacrificing my life 4 her will get to me 4 one second
Then it would all be worth it
It is crazy that one would give their life for a second of the thing they wanted
But 4 love, anything is worth it
The Maze
Love is a maze
We can both go our separate ways
One will miss one
The other will miss none
Or we could stick together
And love forever
And when the maze is completed
We will not feel defeated
because we will have eachother
