"You'd want to keep me. I'd want to be kept. What a disaster that would be."
Use the above as a direct quote, or as an inspiration for your piece. Feel free to generate any kind of writing you choose, but know this: I probably won't choose poetry as the winner. I'm not a huge fan of the stuff.

You'd want to keep me

I'd want to be kept

Oh, what a disaster that would be

If I let myself love you, I would only end up with pain

I'd be left with a fist-sized hole in my heart, with your name written all over it

And later you'd regret the trouble you brought me

Because you'd realize that it hurt yourself more than it hurt me

You never meant to do it

And you said you never would

Yet here we are

A disaster plaguing ourselves

Brought about by letting our hearts feel
