Love Hate Relationship<br />

Katiana Harvey<br />

I don’t write poetry.<br />

My words don’t make sense.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y just make me sound dense<br />

.<br />

I mean, I can rhyme a word here and there<br />

But have you seen me with rhythm?<br />

It’s quite a scare.<br />

My poems are a jumble<br />

Just like a football fumble.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have no pattern or order.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are just a bunch of words scattered around.<br />

To me, poetry is a big mystery.<br />

When I try to write it, it’s like I’m stuck in a very tall tree.<br />

That’s probably why I never try,<br />

Because when I do, I just want to sit and cry.<br />

Please don’t try to analyze this.<br />

It doesn’t mean anything.<br />

Maybe someday I will write something great.<br />

But tonight at eleven-thirty is no time to create.<br />
