if you have problems
and don’t want the world to know it
unless you intend to solve them
don’t date poets
listen to me dearest
cuz everybody hears me
we are not good at keeping secrets
and we speak quite clearly
we are undoubtedly accountable
we live our lives in public
and although sometimes it sounds like hell
in the end we love it
we tell the truth
and we bring change
so don’t be confused
by how we relish public pain
we burrow into your brain
make you feel insane
soak your mind like rain
till its pure once again
its like an intervention
brought to you with art
and everything mentioned
is meant to purify your heart
its like an exorcism
kick the demons form your soul
musical mesmerism
that tells you to let go
of that which you were hiding
deep within your mind
admit that you were lying
to yourself and go and find
what you were denying
from yourself deep inside
and stop relying
on past lies best left behind
stop destroying yourself
with the same annoying hell
a poet makes it more impossible with everyone he tells
and in the end hating him is great for your health
he will motivate you, to fix yourself, from spite
if you date a poet, you will hate him, and that will make you improve your life.
you’ll never be his wife
but you’ll both be alright
you’ll marry someone else
and he will sit alone, and write.
if you have problems
and don’t want the world to know it
unless you intend to solve them
don’t date poets
