Short Distrait Poems

Should I mourn each falling leaf?
Distrait of beauty in my grief
Observe the rose in such pain

Hello, hey
You don’t need to hide yourself away,
It’s only you that you'll be hiding anyways.

And you can hate yourself all that you want to,
Like the feeling of popcorn
Between your teeth.

But pretty soon, you can realize that

Nobody cares more than you. 

Everyone's too distrait,
Caring about themselves.

Nobody can hate you more than you,

Since you judge yourself 
In the harshest ways.

So give it up,
Have another cup of tea.

I love the way you laugh....
