For the Poetry

There’s a connection 
A brief flirt
And before you know it
We’re going crazy over each other’s words
The list of reasons confirms you won’t be good for me
But it’ll make for some good poetry

We fool around, lift each other up
Take a drink from the lover’s cup
But watch out,
Don’t get in too deep
Remember this is only for the poetry

We circle around crazy ideas
The two of us in a bed 
Doing things we shouldn’t ought to
I end up thinking constantly of only you
But remember this is only for the poetry

We connect in many ways
Over days and days
They turn to weeks and months
Still we don’t give up
It’s intoxicating, it’s exciting 
But remember this is only for the poetry

Poems come left and right
There isn’t an end in sight 
Every word pours out of me
It’s such a guilty pleasure 
But remember this is only for the poetry

But now the poetry has run dry 
All I can do is look back and ask why
Because the flame is only as strong it can go
Without putting more into it to make it grow 

So when it all comes to an end and the fire burns out 
When it’s safe to walk away
Let’s look back and say
Wasn’t that some grand poetry!
