I am not a poet.
I am not a lyricist.
I can't make words sing,
I can only put down thoughts.

I am not a knight in shining armor.
I am not Robin Hood, come to save the day.
I can't save people,
I can hardly save myself.

I am not easily angered, or so I thought.
I am not easily won over, neither.
I can't take back what I said,
I can barely write this now.

I am not a perfect man, in any way, shape or form.
I am not even a mediocre one.
I can't move on, I can't move back,
I can, however...

No, I can't.
