how can i tell you how i feel\/
\nwithout making it sound superficial\/
\nyou’re real yet you seem surreal\/
\nfor me your very presence is beneficial\/
\nwords cannot contain the emotion\/
\nyet if i say nothing i will explode\/
\nwhy do i relish the taste of this potion\/
\nthat makes the heaviest burden seem a light load\/
\ni can’t imagine ever telling you\/
\nmaybe i will some day in the fall\/
\nmaybe some day before we all go to\/
\nthe final resting place of all\/
\nwhat will you say if i do say it\/
\nwill you embrace me or label me a hypocrite?<\/i><\/p>\n
this is one of the crappiest poems i’ve ever written
\nit is a sonnet<\/p>\n
i wrote it because i had to get a friend motivated to write one<\/p>\n
that’s all<\/p>\n
otherwise i’ll stick to amateur crap rap<\/p>\n
and short bursts of quartets if i do go for any poetry<\/p>\n
