Ode to Poetry

February 14th, 2005

Carefree rhyming as you go
Changing words to and fro
Poetry is what I do best
Need help and I’ll be your guest
No need to even rhyme
Some think it’s a waste of time
I’m always writing away
A poem almost every day
Writing out the words to your heart
Poetry is such a wonderful art

Forfeit

You told me you wouldn’t rage quit again
But you’re done playing this game
Dropped me out of boredom
And I wish I could do the same
For years going in the same circle
You erase the progress every time
And there’s no cheat codes
I guess you won’t ever be mine
I was looking for my duo
But you prefer to play solo
As I surrender once again
This is the final deathblow

Avoidant Discard

I don’t understand why
You wanted to play me
I gave you time and space
And this is how you repay me
