POEM STARTER
Use the idea of something becoming polluted as a metaphor in your poem.
A Polluted Heart
When we first got together
I thought our hearts would be pure
I was lying for sure
Because our love changed like the weather
When you were complimenting other boys
I thought it was nothing to worry about
But when I started hearing sweet shouts
I knew I was gonna become one of her toys
When she refused to talk to me
Whilst we were at a family meal
I thought it was just a silent nervous squeal
But she just looked at me with glee
And after all this poor affection
And all these feelings of inadequacy
I had to do some self-advocacy
By destroying this interconnection
Between a happy girl and a polluted heart
