I read silently.
Quietly I ignore,
I ignore the noise.
I feel your pain.
I feel your love.
I understand what you mean.
I wish you were here,
To see and meet and converse,
With you, that would be heaven.
You inspire the words on my paper,
But you are dead.
I can't see you.
I wish I could.
At least I have your work,
Edgar Allen Poe.

I really like him too.
He helped me realize that everyone has dark thoughts and that I shouldn't be ashamed of my dark poems.<3

I totally agree. Edgar Allen Poe is so extremely cool.
