TOO DEEP FOR ME
I love the shallows of a beach
TOO DEEP FOR ME
7-5-2025
I am pretentious
As you can see
Because if I am not
then I am not me
And I am only a reflection
of failings of direction..and..
self-doubt
self-critique
will ruin my complexion.
Thus I write for you
To twist your world..
..your mind imbue..
With questions?
Like..
What may be the meaning here?
This wording being quite so queer
That I fail as a poetic seer..
And I am left behind I fear!
But...
I get it!
I understand.
If the poem is too easy
Makes the mind a bit uneasy
If the poem is naught but bland.
Sweet Dreams
