You Don't Like Me

You Don't Like Me

You don't like me
I get it
In the past 
I did not much 
like myself

I talk too much
I am a dreamer
I speak out
When I should
Keep my mouth shut

All are valid
reasons to 
dislike me

If someone is 
my friend
or family member
they have 
me for life

If you lose
touch with me
Don't worry
I will come
back around

I always do

I am a dick
I am defiant 
I push the limits
I do not see
a ceiling
only the heavens

I won't say
I am who I am
Because I always 
believe there could be
a better me

I won't change 
my hair for you
In fact I  have
found 
a way to make
it more outrageous

I cheated with the mask thing....

I won't change
The way I do 
business
but I will modify it

sometimes......

depends on 
my own logical reasoning
and what works

My poetry style
unliked
by many
and treasured by
a few

Its okay
done mostly
for my amusement

I am always 
excited when 
I see you

I will daydream
for days 
in anticipation
and
though
when we
part I know
You are exhausted 
by our interaction

Just Remember
I love you.... 
and
I cheated with the MASK thing......

Being Me

Hi Greg!  I can't think why anyone would dislike you!

The thing about poetry is — well, there's a few things actually — the main one is that poetry is different. It's different styles and liked (or not) by different people. The other thing is that there are a whole load of poetry snobs. No one should ever look down on what a poet writes ... they ste allowed not to like it but, in my opinion, they should never put a poet down for their efforts. Snobs. Poetry snobs. Another thing about poetry is, I think, fashion. Types slip in and out of favour quite regularly. I am like you, I just write because i like writing them. If there is anyone who doesnt like you, it's their loss x
