Love

I know how many crappy

Love poems you've heard in

Your life.

Man, do I know.

I'm sick of them, too.

What I really wanna

See is a poem

That shows love for

What it REALLY is.

Not just that stupid giddy

Feeling.

That's not love.

Love's harder than that.

Love's deeper than that.

Love means more than that.

Love isn't always great—just

Like anything else in life.

Poets' words don't

Do love much justice.

Love can be good,

But not always.

Love can be shitty.

We all know that.

So why do all those

So-called famous poets,

Famous for their truths,

Suddenly become liars

Over the most powerful

Feeling on earth?

Who knows?

That's all I have to say.

Who knows?
