what she did to me

Why is it so hard to be around me?

Is it because you know deep down I make you happy?

That was just my guess; I don’t know your reason

But your heart keeps you acting like you’re committing treason…

Maybe this is just what I want to see, and not the truth

But this feeling for you that I have is so uncouth.

I start to hate myself for not letting go

Sometimes so much that I feel like a zero

It’s when I can’t sleep that I write

But I have tried other things, tried with all my might

Some people tell me they want to write the way I do

But they have no idea what they would be getting themselves into…

I wish I could put the thought of us behind

But I can’t help but think our fates are intertwined

There I go again, wanting you for myself

Man I wish I could put this story on the shelf.

This lack of sleep can’t be good

If only I could forget you, I know that I should

The way you stick in my mind, it drives me crazy

Wait, I’m done for now, everything is getting hazy

But just in case I’m not wrong

Don’t you worry; I will be back writing before too long…

Very nice. All the poems I have read so far speak of longing. I would love to see the ones that speak of your strengthd. You have a smooth flowing quality about your work and the rhythm in your poetry is evident. I would love to see you address more topics.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
