this is not a normal poem
this is not about red roses
or incorrectLy colored violets

this Is not written my famous poet
but instead a young girl
sitting on her couch
dreaming about what the next line should be

this poem won't be studied in high schools
hundreds of yeArs from now
because there aren't any metaphors
or hidden meanings that reflect feelings better than any mirror ever could
(okay, i lied about the metaphors)

this poem won't make you cry
it hardly has a point at all
it only contains
simple words that May or may not be true

this is not a normal poem
because the poet is not exactly normal

and this is not a normal poem
because this poem is written for you
