I am not that kind of poet
who writes about the trees
the meadows or the sheep
I am that kind of poet
who knows people by heart
who knows life can teach you lessons
even though you're smart
Who knows about agony
and who knows about pain
who has lacked company
but never felt ashamed
There is only one thing
I could give to you
- a piece of my heart ache
that's all I can do
Amidst the forgotten
and the insignificant
I am number one.
It wouldn't have to be that way.
