POEM STARTER
Write a poem on any topic you like using slant rhyme.
Slant rhyme is where two words sound very similar, but do not exactly rhyme. For example: soon/gloom, cloud/doubt.
Poison Ivy.
The wind is trying to ruffle my mind,
The voices whispering since I arrived,
Trying to blow me off my path,
Asking “how long will I last?”
Until I see things their way.
The thorns are digging deep into my skin,
The poison ivy is trying to make me flinch,
I wish to choose my own grave,
My own life, my own fate—
I swear it won’t be a waste.
I know they long for the best of me,
But can they let my own hands be complete?,
I know they will forever keep pestering,
Until it’s their world, I’m entering.

This is a (slight) vent poem, so ignore that.
I wanted to add more but it's kinda personal lol :)
