Poet Introduction
Hi, I'm Woo
Reconsider
I write about love a lot but I tend to keep my love life locked...
double bolted with an alarm, two top flight security guards and few watch dogs just to make sure that the only way you get close is if I let you, but the problem is I never do....
so unless you're sure, completely sure,
stay away...
Please stay away...
Stay away before you make a huge mistake and unlock a love so deep you'll drown twice
Stay away before you get so intertwined in me that a mere thought of the feeling I'm capable of giving you makes you weak in the knees only...

Hungover
They always said that drunken words were sober thoughts,
there may be some truth to that because that liquid courage is one hell of a drug
Blurring every line between lust and love until you can no longer tell them apart,
every shot you take to the head is also a shot you take to the heart
And you reload that gun....again...and again...and again
Every bullet in that bottle you fire straight back until the room begins to spin
Before you know it you're back in that same position you were in,
when you made that vow to yourself last time that you'd never get...

Thinking Out Loud
Sometimes I wish I could think out loud
So you'd know how I felt without apprehension
I know you constantly wonder what's on my mind
About all the thoughts I fail to mention
On the outside I'm reserved, choosing to listen more than speak
But internally there's a war with thoughts that run deep
From reflection to introspection, even fears of regression
And just when my logic chooses words they lose direction
It's a gift and a curse to have the gift to observe
To see things for what they are and people for what they're worth
The gift is in the...
