Love Not A Writer

Love not a writer because most
People thought writers are adorable,
Writers have no perfect heart as you see them.
Their hearts are afraid of rejection and always hide in their shells whenever they are discriminated in the public.
And they panic always when someone gets too close
Because their easy way to escape can be hard to find.

When you love a holy and great writer,
He seeks perfection badly because his work of art is not perfect and can never be perfect in his eyes and other writers.
A crooked pictures, femished lines and naked sentences take him more than a day to make it straight yet, nothing is ever perfect in his eyes.
He forget what straight means and spend more than drafting dirtiness here and there because he thinks he is better than what he sees and reads on paper.

Writers lie, creating false imagination and hope
Yet, they are the interpreters of the deaf gods.
Love not a writer nor date him because he will
Keeps screaming of love even when his mind
Ask him to stay away when he is broken but, with his
Last straw shall he hold you captivate and hostile.

Writers never tell what is wrong or right but they assure you that you are good at what you do.
Love not a writer because he will blind you with a
Fairytale and a godmother that never exist but,
Exist in his mind before he was born to this world.
He will fix you in this stereotype life that you can't escape from but roam here and there like a fool.

He blame every one when a fabric of imagination is torn and the broken parts shattered away in the house.
He will be afraid to propose because he thinks when you comes in; you will see the ugly creature he is.
He is afraid of himself and his words so he hide in his old self without coming out to the sun.
He will doubt every compliment you give to him, in the darkest part of his heart; he inspect and analyse your words of praise.

He will like to know if you loves him truly so
He understudy you like where he study his characters.
He will question your moves, mood, smiles and feelings like When a critic critique a work done by him without knowing he is punishing himself.
He hate you when you hate to love his works
Because his writing is the only harmless way of self harm left; he could get broken while writing.

He smile when you say you understand and he knew you definitely don't understand what he meant to you.
He is a creator, when you misbehave; he create another you.
He can destroy you with words when wooing you ,
His schedules are always flexible and easy going.
Do not love a writer because he will frustrate your life.
