Date a writer,
You will feel the wind on your skin
You will know beauty in the kind of simplicity you have never seen
And with that knowledge, you will be free.
Date a writer,
And you will see the world in colour
A mirage of sunset shades that you never imagined
Gold and orange spilled over your face.
Date a writer,
You will see the way she looks through sadness
With multi-dimensional glasses set in tints brighter than typical roses
And it will be the balance that lifts you.
Date a writer,
You will learn to love in the most honest of ways
Moved by the heart, pushing needless tricks of the mind aside
You will be loved, and you will feel alive.
After all that has been said and done
If you break my heart, I will turn it into art
That is the way that this works
So do not place the blame on me
When you see your name painted in red lights
Like deer in the headlights.
Warning sirens have been rung from the start –
Date a writer,
and each good
along with every bad
become yours to keep.
