Sonnet to a Stone
This is a repost... It was my first post here, but it's also the first poem I've ever written... And my favorite..
I can't relate to you,
you can't relate to me.
You are a neanderthal
crawling on your knee
I'm a Goddess. You?
An insignificant pig.
Why I thought we could be?
How stupid, it isn't trig.
Stay within thine own species.
How hard to follow?
It's my own fault that
I now feel so hollow.
I can't be angry with you
for being a bug.
In comparison to me.
I'm sorry, need a hug?
Well too bad.
I hug you, I squish you.
Don't blame me.
I can't change what is true.
I think I'll consider this
officially over.
Unless I want to
continue dating Rover.
I can't imagine now
what had me possessed.
I was distracted.
I must have been stressed.
As you can tell,
I'm horrible at poetry.
But your lack of intellect..
it just came over me.
I'd prefer to write
an epic novel.
Become famous
then make you grovel.
Yet merely due to your
insufferable idiocy.
Yeah, I went there.
I got a little risky.
I apologize to anyone
who reads this drivel.
Consider it, regarding him?
My only scribble.
And then I implore you
young maid and mister.
Even if you have to
kiss your own sister.
Do not show your heart
to those below you.
There is no possibility
that they might know you.
Keep looking
til the day you die.
For that ideal girl
that perfect guy.
Trust me.
Being all alone?
Sure beats the hell out of
trying to reason with a stone.
