My Cliche

~~My Cliché

I have a poem in my heart
Like it, add it to your cart
I don’t know how it should go
Should it rhyme every line
Should it not rhyme
Will it shine, I call it mine
Why not, it’s what I got
Could be hot, Why not
Is it cold, should I fold
Is it sold, what I’m told
It’s a talent, Makes a dent
I don’t get it, Forget it
All I do is sit
Write of dark and light
I write a poem or two
From me to you
Does it rhyme or shine
You tell me, its poetry
What do you want from me
You say rhyme, don’t rhyme
It just confuses me
It’s my poetry
Is it a cliché
What the hay
May I, do I, I do, for you
It’s from the heart
Right from the start
But should I rhyme every line
You might say it’s a cliché
But I say hey, it’s my cliché
That’s what I say
