Poetry On Odyssey: I Have No Idea What To Write About

The title is pretty self-explanatory, I truly have no ideas this week. Writing is tough and churning out ideas is just another thought on my mind throughout the week. Come to think, I have never dived into poetry. Mainly because my high school teacher told me in her own words, dude you ain't good. But, through the years I thought I would try again and journey into new territory with some free form. Literally, just random thoughts I have and hopefully, you will find something out about me if you care at all.

I Have No Idea What To Write About

I have no idea what to write about

Why do I have no ideas?

The small hamster wheel in my head has stopped spinning.

Keep checking my Snapchat

I wonder if that girl will snap me back?

Been on read for 5 hours, so looks like a no.

I keep twirling my fingers through the curls in my hair

I really need to get that fresh cut

My laziness prevents that, so looks like a no to that too.

I'm so broke it's sad

Down to that last 25 dollars

Yet I still agreed to go out for a drink tonight.

Even now I'm still thinking

No ideas are popping up

So, I'll just litter this page with more.

Really wish she would snap me back

I should probably ask her for her actual number

That's just weird these days, so again no.

I promised some people I would write about them

I totally flaked on that one

Sorry those people i promised it will happen someday.

It's so cold in this room

My feet are practically frozen

But, I really need to finish this poem or whatever this is.

I also forget how long poems are supposed to be

I'd look in that handbook

But, I can't remember where that is either.

Ok, back to that girl for the last time

We've talked and I feel as though we click

Maybe it's just me, so i'll double text just to make sure.

Is anyone honestly going to read this?

Someone will feel bad and give me a view or two

To that person who will, thank you.

The idea wheel is starting to go now

I'm already to far deep into this poem

Might as well try and finish up.

Poetry is supposed to be freeing and calming

Yet, I don't feel either right now

Maybe if she would snap me back I would.

Alright one last and final time

Leaving me on read for 5 hours?

Ok, I'm done now.

I have no idea what to write about

I hope you all figured that out

Possibly next week I will brainstorm harder.

After that drink tonight the ideas will come through

But, I would've already turned this is in

I'll let you know how that drink goes.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
