Second Draft (Bad Poetry)

The Truth About Love
I told him I loved him
He said, "Go take a hike."

What happens when
the one you love
doesn't love you back?

Why do we always want
what we cannot have?

Is it part of human nature
to torture ourselves this way?

Love is hard

Love is torturous

Love is impossible

Love is unavoidable

Love is divine

Very Bad Poetry

Cheesecake is yummy
but also very funny
i love it
and it is a fit

cows say moo
and they do
chew their cud
all day long, bud

eat food
when you're in the mood
for the dude
who sells stupid stuff on tv

"go home" he said to me
but i'd rather read
a story about girls
and their pretty little curls
so i stayed there
with that bear
named Marshall

i said i loved him
he said go take a hike
we decided to go to vegas
and got married at the drive-in
while ordering fries at McDonald's

M: Are you ready?
W: No
M: Will you ever be?
W: Nope.
M: Then let's go.
W: A couple more minutes... please? I can't... I just need a second.
M: Okay.

W: What am I supposed to say to him?
M: Who?
W: My father.
M: Just tell him the truth.
W: What if I don't even know what the truth is?
M: Then I guess you're in trouble.
W: Wait, what did you say? Why would I be in trouble?
M: You're supposed to know what the truth is. If you didn't, then why'd you say "I do?"
W: I don't know...
M: You don't know?! I gave away my life for you and now you don't know?!
W: Yes.. I mean.. You don't understand!
M: Obviously not. Have fun with your dad. Make sure to tell him I say hi.
