Poem Collection - MythOfHappiness - 2. Locker Note 1
Your hair
It’s brown
Of course it is,
What a stupid way to start a poem
But still.
I could never get that hair off my mind
Sitting behind you in math
I just wanted to reach out and touch it
Feel its softness
Smell it
I’m a creep
I know
Talking about how I want to smell your hair
You probably think
I’m some insane stalker weirdo
That’s ok,
If you think that.
I kinda am.
Sorry, you should probably just stop reading now
Call the cops or something.
I wouldn’t be mad
Honestly, I’d be relieved.
At least then I wouldn’t have to wonder anymore
Wonder about you
Wonder about me
It’s killing me,
All this wondering
And pining
Over something I clearly can’t have -
You
I’m sorry
I’m so weird
I can’t even talk to you in person
Like a real human would
Instead, I’m writing a goddamn poem
What a terrifyingly creepy and stalker-ish thing to do
Write a poem about how I want to smell your hair
And stick it in your locker
Honestly, I’m not even good at it
I mean, what kinda poem is this?
Just five lines
Of me blathering on
About whatever
Getting off subject
It doesn’t even rhyme
Maybe I should just get to the point
I like you
Alot
And I would really like it
If you liked me too
Sorry about all this
I didn’t mean to be so creepy
And un-poetic
In my mind this was going to be
Some sweet romantic gesture
Instead it’s just thirteen stanzas of nothing
An ugly outpouring of pure nonsense
But I told myself that I would go through with this
So I will
I’ll give it to you
But please,
Please
Can you just do one thing
Before you throw this mess away?
Could you consider it?
