1. when you meet it’ll be like a fairy tale
and like the spindle that pricked sleeping beauty’s finger
he will spin you gold out of words and make you feel like a princess
2. he will lay you out on a table and dissect you with his words
he will take out your heart, mind, and soul before carefully stitching them together
into a song and though you will see this as art
remember that when you leave you will be nothing but scribbles on a paper
3. he will write songs of what he should’ve done
and you won't hear these songs until
you are downtown searching the bottom of a bottle for the answers on why you are drunk
and he is on stage singing to a new girl on how you hurt him
4. you’ll get back together because maybe he is just a tortured soul
but know that some tortured souls aren’t by nurture or nature
but by choice
5. he’ll show you he loves his guitar more than you
6. that he loves his fans more than you
7. that he loves himself more than you
8. you’ll find his notebook and you’ll see
it is filled with songs about girls who came before you ever were a melody in his mind
and girls who came after you were nothing but a waded up rejected hook
9. He’ll say to you “baby i didn’t know what love was until I met you” but you will remember he wrote that about girl number 3 and number 7 and you’re just number 10
10. when you finally do leave him for good, songs will never sound the same, the pluck of a guitar could snap your heart strings and you’ll be nothing but notes
notes on why you should never love a musician
