A Poet's Life

I've got my pencil and paper What is it next that I need? Maybe a little inspiration Would help me to succeed Let me see now what to write Maybe of broken hearts No, that's just way too sad That's always how it starts Maybe I'll write of romance Two hearts beating together No, that's just way too mushy Maybe about the weather Maybe I'll write of loneliness Okay, I think I'm gonna cry Maybe I'll ask some questions Somebody has to know why Maybe I'll write about cheaters Or a broken promise or two Maybe I'll write of confusion And not knowing what to do This poet stuff is harder than it looks I just don't know where to begin Well see, now look what I've done This poem has come to an end
