A Poem by Brandon Quinn

T,

Though feelings unrequited
Are never very nice,
I still think that lessons learned
Are very worth the price.
For hearts broken always heal
And memories turn to shadows,
Why let yourself drown in deep waters
When you can wade the shallows.
That is what this is
A simple bait and switch,
Replace my heart with iron
Because metal needs no stitch.
As much as I can feel
This was just a fluke,
So why waste time and energy
When we can just use nukes.
Yes, I really mean it
And no you shouldn't care,
For you and I both know now
That life is never fair.
I don't think this is punishment
I don't want to trade blows,
For flowers blossom in the spring
And wither in the snow.
As far as I'm aware
The world will not be ending,
And spring will surely come again
So let's not start pretending.
Truly I have won at life
To have met someone like you,
To teach me a valuable lesson
Which I have yet to construe.
I know I will gain strength
And time will surely tell,
That when I am much better
I'll surely forget this hell.
Honesty is important
To keep myself so sane,
And healing is a guaranteed fact
So why should I feel pain?
Even if I do cry
Which surely I will not,
I will have plenty tissues
To rid me of my snot.
I will have many moments
In which I will be loved,
And those who choose to love me
Will be hoisted up above.
For I have one thing lasting
Before we do part ways,
I want to say you touched my soul
For that you do get praise.
I wish you love and happiness
For all your future years,
For I will also find it
To that we can all cheers!
