      Rough draft of a poem I just wrote today. Probably the rawest thing I’ve written, which isn’t saying much lol.

      by B. Gauterius

      I cannot say what I think

      And I cannot think of what to say.

      When my better judgment restricts

      What my heart begs to convey–

      I’ll pretend I didn’t hear you.

       

      But I wish that I could tell you

      And hear what you would say,

      Yet I doubt I’d like your answer,

      So I think I’ll go away.

      This corner seems nice.

       

      Maybe in a few years

      I’ll crawl out of this den,

      And I’ll be able to tell you

      And we’ll be the greatest friends.

      Or maybe you’ll be gone.

       

      So maybe I will tell you now

      What I really think

      How I love the books you read

      And why I couldn’t sleep.

      Maybe, perhaps, today

      I’ll say what I think.

      "Can't have dirty garbage."

        @sparrowhawke I like this! It’s raw and honest. I don’t think I would change anything in it. Keep writing! 🙂

        Psalm 119:11
        Your word I have hidden in my heart,
        That I might not sin against You.
