Who’s fault is is this
Is it mine?
My passion for life burned bright
I fell in love with anyone and everyone
When I realized you’re beauty
You’re true beauty
I told myself that this was not love
But I knew this was the realest love
And I ignored it
I was certain I could never feel this way
Is this my fault?
Or is it yours?
You were always a self proclaimed bitch
Maybe you beyond repair from your trauma
You went after the ones who treated you terribly
You always put yourself in harm's way
Is this your fault? ...

You are a poet’s worst nightmare
The anxiety and fear take back seat to you
All of the anger and angst has been replaced with love and hope
And we’ve got a reputation to uphold
We can’t be happy
What would we write then
Love poems?
That shit doesn’t sell
How can I make a living when you are my living
My words have become soft
I no longer say fuck you
Unless I’m telling you what my plans are for tonight
You are a poet’s worst nightmare
But you are this poet’s wildest dream

To the first boy I ever fell in love with.
I hate you
Before I met you I knew what I wanted in this world
I was going to be a rough and tough football player
But now I’ve discovered my passion for the arts
I knew the kind of girl I wanted to marry. a rule abiding, scientist who could always appreciate a good discussion about politics
But then I met you
A rebel pothead who couldn’t name three presidents, and I love it. I love everything about it
I hate you
I was going fly out of this small town and never look back.
Now I don’t want to leave...
