others may have wine, i have poetry

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute.

We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race.

And the human race is filled with passion.

And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.

But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

broken

if being overweight is a flaw
I'm disfigured love
if not following your morals is flaw
I'm defective love
if not wearing the right clothes is a flaw
i am stained love
If taking the road less travelled is flaw
I am a failure love
I not sticking to stereotypes is flaw
I am  mutilated love
If not sticking to what the world tells
and not following the herd  are flaws
I am damaged love
I am broken
