PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

it's always you, but it's never me.

i know you know,

and you know i know,

that we can't move forward.

timing is everything

and we are nothing right now.

i mean everything i say,

and what i cannot say i surely will write.

i've written a hundred times

how intricate and sinking my love is.

you are what i see

when i shut my eyes.

then again, it is all inside my head.

i write everyone's story before i let it happen

and i make it impossible for anyone

to live up to these impeccable standards.

nobody can withstand the havoc i reap.

i'm nearly too severe for my own mind,

how should i expect you to care for me

in a way i cannot care for myself?

this all means nothing and i'm just a fool

drunk off of cheap vodka

and the thoughts provoked

by the way you say my name.

won't you just say my name.
