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
