Some people
just can't date writers.
There are some people
who will be fascinated
by the way you can
string words together,
how you find beauty
in the little girl
who lost her hat
to the wind at the park,
how you hand write
every letter
and mark the sad parts
with tears,
how you close the envelope
with ink stained wrists.
But there are some people
who will look at you
like you have lost
your fucking mind.
There are some people
who will lose patience
in your bedside lamp
turning on and off
late at night
as you scribble words
on a receipt.
Some people
will trip over your
crumbled papers
and chewed pens
with a sigh of annoyance.
These people
will take you
by the wrists
and say,
"God dammit
can't you just drink
the fucking coffee
without trying to
write a love letter
with the cream
and sugar?"
Some people
just can't date writers.
Some people
don't deserve to.
