POEM STARTER
Write a poem based around the theme of Shattered Trust.
Dangerous Charm
You promised that you’d
Hold me,
Cuddle me for hours,
Little did I know,
You were only there
For riches and for powers.
I knew of your past,
I knew it was rough,
I knew about all your
Lies and cons…
_Yet I still_
_Took you in_
_And made you mine…_
I never should’ve
Trusted you,
I should’ve known
You’d never change.
I don’t know what to make
Of the fact
That our love was fake.
A con artist,
A liar,
A heartbreaker
That I desire…
_Why?_
Your dangerous charm
I’ll never understand,
You swept me up so high,
I thought I’d never land.
_I did…_
_Eventually,_
_And not on two feet…_
You left me alone,
Lost in the cold,
All the power I
Used to hold,
It’s now in your
Wretched hands…
I didn’t know
It was fake,
I didn’t realize
That all the sand
Was at the bottom
Of the hourglass…
_It’s all out of hand…_
Your dangerous charm,
Your toxic allure,
I know it’ll hurt me,
But I’ll still come back for more.
__
_But you won’t come back_
_To give it to me…_
You broke my trust
And my heart,
You took it all from me,
My innocence and my art.
The once glamorous life
I used to lead
Now lies in your hands,
Yo have it back
I plead.
Your dangerous charm
Lured me in,
Like a siren song,
Then you went for the kill,
You broke my trust,
You did me wrong.
I knew you were dangerous,
And so was your charm…
I’ll always want you,
No matter the harm.
