i tried to buy a heart across the street,
but the man there said new hearts don't come cheap.

I used to be a mind reader
  but I gave it up
No longer feel the need to know
  what’s really being thought

With me you share
  the weight of your heart
and the flight of your soul

No need to pre-think
  what you think
because you tell me all

I need coffee
like the grass needs the rain.
I need coffee
I'm going really insane.
I need coffee.
like a book needs its words
I need coffee
like the sky needs the birds.
I need coffee:)

I wanted to try shape poetry again, and I have to say this was MUCH harder than .leafing
https://hellopoetry.com/poem/2633672/leafing/

It took forever to align the slashes to give this poem shape, without them it didn't look like an hourglass.
I hope you liked this poem and I'd love it if you commented some links to any shape poetry you've tried out.
Hope you enjoyed :)

Lets look
at the clouds
and paint
pictures
with our
fingers
in the charming
blue sky
while we laugh
and cry
on our
childhood memories.

Lie
You're
lies,
they
are all
covered
in
"I love you's"
