Dammit I’m mad

About what you say?

Why, the rules

The town

The world today

I’m mad at the people

The pandemic

The pollution

I’m what?

Overdramatic?

I’m

Arrogant

Hostile

Sometimes even boastful

But overdramatic?

No

If for some cause I was overdramatic

It was as the result of you

Your words

Your actions

Therefore its your fault at blame

Not my own.

Hey guys for this poem, I was trying to push mys...

I stand in the grocery store

Look at the scrap of paper

Read what the words I previously wrote

Pizza

Ice cream

Lettuce

Tomatoes

The list goes on

It’s balanced

Fun

It reflects my life

The next week

I’m back

The list this time is shorter

There isn’t as much fun reflected

It’s only vegetables

The next week I look at the list again

The words are blurry and I can’t make them out

I can tell the l...

I love the way your eyes crinkle when you laugh

I love the way your face dimples when you smile

I love the way your brow furrows when you concentrate

I love the way your eyes light up when you’ve discovered something new

I love how your hair is uncontrollable and messy in the morning

I love the way your mouth mumbles unintelligible words when you try and cook

I love the way your nose scrunches, di...

Your words are a match to me

I am ignited and suddenly

I’m aflame

And I’m

Yelling

Screaming

And its all for you

You don’t respond

Wait patiently

Looking sad

It just makes me yell louder

The flame is growing

Spreading into a fire

That can’t be contained

I know it’s eratic of me

That you didn’t deserve it

You shouldn’t suffer from the fire

And a small part of me feels ashamed

Then I think of yo...

The man I knew was funny

Talented

Kind

And than he changed

He came back smelling like beer

He yelled and screamed

I was always scared but to scared to leave

Belittled me until I was nothing

No one else saw him for what he was

And than one day he left

I felt lighter

Happy

As time went on I moved on from my past

I forgot about the man I knew

Until one day

There was a knock

I opened the door

And t...

Do you remember when you smiled at me everyday

Do you remember when you stared at me at the school dance

Do you remember when you made me laugh when I was sitting alone

Do you remember when you called me short and I would laugh and pretend to be annoyed because that was our thing

Do you remember how it all stopped

Do you remember how you looked at her

Do you remember how I couldn’t look at you fo...

Help

Please

The rain comes down harder

Pelting my face

At least I have cover

Leafy

Thin flimsy cover

Still cover

My hair begins to stick

To my face

My clothes begin to stick

To my skin

I take deep breaths

Inhale

Hold

Exhale

Hold

It doesn’t work

And I began to shake violently from panic...

He lunges towards my attacker

Sinks sharp points into his neck

Blood spurts out

Pools around him

He falls to the ground

Dead

I shake

scared

Of what he is

Of what he did

Of what I feel for him

Want more like this?

Check out “The Fire”...

She shouldn’t have been here

She didn’t have anything to do with it

I’ll do anything you want

Just let her go

Take me instead

It was me

I did it

I was there that night with him

That knife was mine

His blood spilt was because of me

I killed him

Please don’t hurt her...

Mommy pick up the matches

Tells me to step back

She walks toward the fire places and scrapes the match against the box

The fireplace is aglow

Mommy is talking to me,

she is going to grab more wood

She tells me to stay away from the fire

I smile so she’ll know I’ll be good

Mommy smiles back and then leaves

I watch the fire for a little bit and than get bored

I think of how pretty it is

How easy i...
