Random Poem:

What it should be.
bear

When there is no
 1
other thought crossing
 2
my mind and there
 3
 
 
is nothing left to
 4
think of in the world
 5
 
 
my thoughts instantly
 6
turn to you, my love.
 7
 
 
Hell, if only it was
 8
like that but the
 9
truth is
 10
 
 
it is not like that.
 11
 
 
The real thing that
 12
happens is that
 13
 
 
I cannot get
 14
you out of my mind.
 15
 
 
You have taken
 16
control and I hope
 17
you never let go.
 18
 
 
This may sound cliche
 19
but this is how I feel
 20
and there is nothing
 21
changing that.
 22
 
 
The reason this sounds
 23
cliche is because others
 24
before me have felt this.
 25
 
 
I had to write this,
 26
there is no choice
 27
if love is cliche
 28
than life is cliche,
 29
the very essence of
 30
humanity is cliche.
 31
 
 
I will change all
 32
the rules for you.
 33
