This Poem's For Me

This poem's for me
But feel free to read
If you've taken a gander
Already peeked

The poems that I write
Are for everyone else
I felt that this time
I'd write one for myself

It's nothing too deep
Or one that boggles the mind
Just a simple rhyme
That passes the time

Took paper and pen
Flicked on the light
Wrote down this poem
That I was inclined

So this poem is for me
Not anyone else
Just thought I should write
This one for myself
