Broken Metaphor
Broken metaphor,
The fragments stab my mind.
How can my words
Be so messy?
How can they
Be so unrefined?
I title myself a writer,
Yet never title my work.
Am I a nameless poet,
Only analyzing my self worth?
The rhymes
Become enzymes.
Breaking down what little motivation
I have
And I spend my downtime
Piecing together halves
Or quarters
Of constellations,
Of broken segments,
Of broken metaphors.
The fragments stab my mind.
How can my words
Be so messy?
How can they
Be so unrefined?
I title myself a writer,
Yet never title my work.
Am I a nameless poet,
Only analyzing my self worth?
The rhymes
Become enzymes.
Breaking down what little motivation
I have
And I spend my downtime
Piecing together halves
Or quarters
Of constellations,
Of broken segments,
Of broken metaphors.
