Idea Of You. Poem by Victor Matthews

Idea Of You.

Rating: 4.5


I liked the idea of you.

You ruined my idea of you.
I had a romantisized idea of you.

When I got to know you,
I was shocked.

What I thought you were, you weren’t.
But, what I thought you were,
Was me.

And that shouldn’t have shocked.

I’ve come to know,
That it’s impossible.

Impossible for me to like anyone,
But of course,
Myself.

Well, that's certainly your business as to how you feel about yourself. Previously stated, I mentioned that you should get to know you. However maybe you are actually happy disliking yourself and others. You are entitled to your opinion afterall. Good poem--Melvina---
