Poems

So this one I wrote not too long ago. I was just thinking about something someone had said about how poetry is kind of a selfish form of writing. We write it mainly for ourselves, to emote something, and so it is a common idea that poetry is not read, or is not given recognition or attention. So here is my very own selfish work. : )


Poems:

I don’t expect you
To understand
Only to listen
And
Perhaps
To care for a moment or two

I don’t in fact rely
On anything
You can say
To
Me
I left that wish behind

I can’t remember
A moment
Of quiet respite
In
Your
Heart and home laid

I stop you here
I remove
I am not
Indebted
To
Your love

I said my piece
In silent
Moments all combined
You
Me
Doesn’t matter
