I Bett

Something I wrote on Valentine's Day in 2008 in about five long minutes. Time-limited writings can often bring about particular feelings.

So I bet you want to know what It’s made of.

Well if I didn’t know, I’d tell you.

Otherwise, It’s a simple batch of truths,

Too callous to overcome.

 

I bet you want to know to Whom I turn.

Well if I didn’t know, I’d tell you.

Otherwise, He’s just a caretaker,

Too real to identify.

 

I bet you want to know Where I’m going.

Well if I didn’t know, I’d tell you.

Otherwise, it’s just an unfamiliar Place,

Too broken to revive.

 

I bet you want to know Why I do it.

Well if I didn’t know, I’d tell you.

Otherwise, It’s just a reason,

Too tender to realize.

 

I bet you want to know When I’ll be there.

Well if I knew, I wouldn’t tell you.

Because, it would be a Time,

Too distant to believe.

Some of the best writes come from deep emotions in a short amount of time...I enjoyed reading this because it showed your tenderness and wit.
