Imposter
I used to think
The best poems were like a cool drink
A quick wake me up
Poured in a nice cup
And then I believed
The best poems burn deep
And dark, and stick
Never letting you out of their grip
Now I don’t know
My burns heal slow
And cool drinks make
My stomach ache
Maybe it’s just me
Maybe I’m not meant to be
I’m just a copycat
Trying to put up a convincing
act
