I hate people’s non sequitur comments
About poems I write with a deep core meaning
When people say, “I love your poetry”
But miss my point and don’t comment on that
I’d rather receive constructive criticism
That shreds apart my work, revealing every single flaw
Than be told “It’s great” and not be told “I understand what you mean”
the sieve and the sand 
oh tuck…
don’t you know…?
you write for
you.
always
for you…
that’s what it’s about.
when you put it
down
on paper
it’s
so
personal.
some people
get it.
so many don’t…
to touch
someone,
with your
words
to make them
feel
your pain,
fear
sadness.
to open their
eyes
and hearts
and make them
cry…
it becomes
personal
for them too.
how do you comment on that?
i love you.
(and p.s. i do get it.)
and its nice once in a while when you write something overwhelmingly deep and someone thinks its about poo…
turns out it reaches you both… just on seperate levels… one for you… and um… number two for them.
