I wrote a song,
but then realized that it wasn't my song,
but your song.
So I came to you
and I gave it to you
and you took it and considered it for a moment...
and then you gave it back to me,
and let me know that you were not, indeed,
in the market for a new song
but that it was a nice song
and I should keep it.
So I have it now.
But I don't want it.
It's empty if it's not yours.
I guess I could keep it.
I'll just pretend I never wrote it.
That you never heard it.
That you never didn't want it.
but then realized that it wasn't my song,
but your song.

I've missed you, dear blog.
It's been a long time.
I haven't written anything in a while.
Most of the creative things in my mind lately have made themselves manifest in songs rather than in poems.
Which I think is kind of cheating.
Because it's easier.
So I'm going to try to do better.
To write better.
And more.
I believe that...it's been difficult to write because absolutely everything in my life lately has been incredibly inspirational.
I've been overwhelmed by the goodness of it all.
