Itch by ~lguan:iconlguan:

Itch

I feel an itch,
In the pit of my stomach.
In an a way,
It feels like a painful twist,
Reminding me of a world we fight for,
That will never exist.

The itch
It doesn’t seem to go away.
It must be telling me,
That a distance,
Can be ten miles,
But can easily turn into a world.

The itch, I realize,
Is the life we live,
Bothering,
Pestering,
Reminding us,
Of the desolate world,
And how it cannot change.

Not much of a writer, much less a poet.
But I had this idea for a poem, thought it would work.

did it?

dunno if 'itch' is the best word to help convey the same feeling of the rest of the poem, but it does work pretty well.

Always use your idea to the fullest! You did good man. I totally get the itch.

yeah, I get what you mean by that :P. But actually, this is an unusual way to approach literature when writing, but I actually kind of thought of the title, the idea of an "itch" before actually writing the poem. And the rest came along with it.
And thanks ;D.
