"NOT ALL ABOUT YOU"

Written 2018-06-24

I can write

about all the things

I find alright

I’ll let you think

this is about you

Aww, don’t get so touchy

What makes you tick oh-so-easily?

There many other topics

I can write about

I know people

different characters

Some are troubles

Others are better

Do I mention your name?

Aww, are your ears burning?

May your eyes twitch

but my heart just happily sings

while your ego feels the itch

I write what I like

not all about you

I’m not up for a strike

I’ve got better things to do

‘cause I’ve moved on

Aww, don’t get so worked up

It’s been months since we last talked

I’ve taken the hint

so I leave you alone

I no longer find you interesting

No, this poem isn’t about you

unless you believe it’s true

Then you’ve got some issues

Boo-hoo!

Remember that we’re through
