Im new to poetry.

Who would've known?
That it would have ended like this.

So shallow,
A gift
Wrapped in the struggle to open it

Ironic it is
to invest,
But be left with so much less

It's a gamble truly.
No man can understand,
or be taught to understand.

Vague it is but vague is just.
No words can capture your uniqueness.

You develop and trust.
But when lost,
I can't get enough

Where to be found?
That's why you're profound.
Where do I search?
Everywhere I go.

I let you flow with no control.
I pour out more, than what's poured in.
Unfair?
Unjust?
Well i've had enough.
Draining all the days is all it does.

You can see
or so you believe
But out of reach,
You'll forever be.
