Reflect on Myself


I cannot write

And I refuse to believe that

Things actually inspire me

Because

I write

Therefore

I am

Weak

And have never been

Strong

I am

Weak in my emotion

And am not

Strong in my word choice

I am

Inspired by you

And it’s so easy to be

In love with you

And be

Able to write about life

It’s challenging

Being alone

But I never thought about

Living without you

I remember

This Moment

It was my favorite

Because

It reminds me of me and you

Like the title

But

I also remember

The Silver Stallion

And writing about

Our relationship

It wasn’t

Perfect

We aren’t

Shakespearean lovers

But I think we could be

Broken forever

We can’t possibly be

In love

This poem isn’t about being

It’s about expression
