The Beginning 2005

You said "You make me thief or liar."
-You make me poet
Hardly seems fair in a world where most lives converge shoulder to shoulder or hip to hip, not nestled in down, but on crowded busses or trains timed to explode just past the station.
I got the better end of the deal
refusing to be thief or liar
(many great poets are born of heart ache)
We grow with each beat.
I'll make you neither thief, nor liar, nor lover, but friend.

You are correct, Natalie...Some of the greatest poetry is borne of heartbreak and pain...Brief but great work,,,it actually made me want to read more lines like those to find the descriptions that worked so well.
