Keeping It Natural (part 1)

some of us have had friends who copy lines out of other peoples' poems and take it for themselves, either for the fame or to impress a spouse; this poem revolves around that topic.

I've never believed keeping an anthology by Shakespeare as a way of expressing your inner-most feelings, but rather, an expression of how hard you're trying to hide them. People under-estimate doing it naturally; they under-estimate doing it themselves, but the truth of the matter is if you're not willing to look/sound stupid then you're not willing to fall in love.It doesn't take a deal with the confectioner to make her become more open; nor does it take an astrologer to know that you're a part of her, all it takes is heart. Willingness brews strong results.

 

Consider this, you're busy copying shakespeare's poems to impress her, and yes, she's definetly getting impressed. The bottom-line is she's falling in love with Shakespeare and not you; harsh, but true. Shakespeare is the wheel-wright and you're the third wheel. Worse off, what if she finds out? you would have done nothing but compile a recipe for disaster, the perfect coup de grace to a mans' ego...
