If....

If i was a real poet...
maybe i could write more about then just...
love and pain..
maybe i could write about...
the first time i felt pretty
or that time you held my hand

If i was a real poet...
maybe i could write about...
the way the sun and rain makes a rainbow
or how the dark clouds mean rain and a big storm
or that one time i had a moment with the person in the car next to me

If i was a real poet...
maybe i could write about...
the way a flower grows
or trees blow in the breeze
or the one time i actually got weak in the knees

But...
if writing about love and pain
and the way you make me feel
makes me not a real poet...
then I'll leave it at that
because how i feel is real
and is worth everything to me.
