NotPoe

I'll never be like Edgar Poe

I'll be myself and try hard though.

For I know love, and I know loss.

And I know words, and I've been crossed.

The heart I've got could write all day,

The mind I've got can make it that way.

I'm dark sometimes, but love brings light

I'll write about how love's light bites!

I'll write until the day I die,

but I'll never be Poe

- and how could I?
