Don't Fall In Love With a Poet
don’t fall in love with a poet,
they will see your words as figure of speech
you will become the main subject in
the poem they write at 7am,
5pm,
or 2am
they will use what you make them feel
as inspiration to write,
they will write about how your kisses
taste like bubblegum
or how your laugh sounds like a sweet melody
or describe any aspect of you
as a sort of cliché
don’t fall in love with a poet,
because they will describe the
heartbreak you make them feel
as a small piece of them being ripped apart into
shreds,
when you fall in love with a poet,
they will write about you
about your stay and your go
and they will wait,
until the next person comes
either as a blessing that stays in their life
or as a regret and sorrow that then leaves it
and since you decided to fall for a poet,
they will use you to write about the journey of
it all,
