Simply Kidding



I can write poems with words so gentle
It will seem like i'm in love
I could write poems laced with violence
Simply Just because.

I can write poems filled with lies
About how life is sugar sweet
Talk about her beauty
And how she's so unique

But for a reason I don't know
People like a sentence that is equal
And the way words are spoken
It doesn't matter of the evil

It seems they do not care
If it's a sequence of a rhythm
I can write what seems like love
But then say i'm simply kidding.
