Maybe I should Quit Poetry

Maybe I should Quit Poetry,

It gives me a heart ache everytime,

Smallest words can make my soul whine,

More than an overflowing Rhine.

Maybe I should Quit Poetry,

Meaningless it is, like love, like life,

My lyrics always tries to strife,

End all it with the scratch of a knife.

Maybe I should Quit Poetry,

For it mirrors my deepest fears,

Each stanza, a cascade of tears,

Echoing through the silent years.

Maybe I should Quit Poetry,

Its verses, a relentless tide,

Unveiling the pain I hide,

In every metaphor, I confide.

Maybe I should Quit Poetry,

Yet, it’s my solace in the night,

A flicker of hope, a distant light,

Guiding me through the darkest plight.

Maybe I should Quit Poetry,

But in its embrace, I find my voice,

A bittersweet, inevitable choice,

To let my heartache rejoice.
