Use You

A poem about me. The modern day hopeless romantic.

Relax
Take a moment
Life can take a tax
So you have to get up and own it

Soooo many people will try to use you
Just look at them like they confuse you
I ignore the fake
I ignore the takers

A world full of hate
Seems like the only level
On which people communicate
I could never relate to that
I was raised well
I was raised to love
And that is a fact

Breathe
Don't let them weigh on you
Their mistakes are not your problem
And I'm sure as hell not wasting my life
Running around trying to solve them

If you aren't real
If you're motives aren't true
Then don't come around
Ever
Not even when you're right next to me in town
Even if you think you can fix my frown
You can't
Unless you're willing to stay around

I want to build a castle
Where no one wears a crown
I know it seems like a hassle
To relinquish control

Is that so impossible?
Are you really acting
Like the people on TV?
Cause I want you
To act like me

I want you in one way
You want me in another
If you can't figure that out
Then you won't get near my covers
You want me to be big dick Rick
To pretend to care
To tell you what you want to hear
Then make love to a liar
You make me sick
You make me want to conspire
To end this whole human race
Take your cesspool to another planet
Because I can't stand it

I won't do this
I won't do that
You aren't ALL that you think you are
The thing in your pants
Is no different than the rest
Plus it's the last thing on my list
I want romance
I want a chance to fall for you
I want you to get a clue
I want you to plan for the future
Use your mind babe
Then you will see
That I don't want to use you

Author's Note

Feeling a little blue tonight. Sorry if this depresses you..... But it's true. So take a dive into honesty. Stop running from who you will always be.

Love this.
You sound like a true man. So many men in this world, just want 1 thing only.
Seems like you ain't like that, men like you are rare to find these days.
Whoever this is about, you should show her this piece.
Its romantic and sweet. Also very honest and im sure she would love it.
Who doesn't love a man that writes.
Poets are emotional and think with there hearts, most girls love a poet.
She would be lucky to have you :)
