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,
