I wouldn’t hide my mind inside
These lines so you would say “he’s smart”
I’m not that deep or that intense
I’m just the guy who coughed his heart
It’s not for you to read or praise
It’s just for me to see my soul
This is the way that it should be
So break that mirror on your wall
There is no talent or a gift
It’s only how you show your mind
That’s why a tear outlives these lines
For all around me says I’m blind
Why would I write if no one is
a better poet than the world
That’s why we listen hard because
we only write what we are told
Don’t pay attention to these lines
I’m just giving my pen a test
Sadly it writes then I’m afraid
I’ll throw it out with all the rest
