POEM STARTER
Submitted by SmileyGuitar
Write a poem that starts in a cheerful, bright mood, but then reveals underlying anger or bitterness.
Captivated
Honey hair and the bluest eyes
Eyes that could make me fall in love
Or just fall
Sweet smiles present themself on your lips every so often
Long enough for me to stare in awe
Then look away
I find myself drowning in your prescense
Blissfully suffocating on desire
Burning alive in the flames that my heart cant unignite nor forget
Im falling far too fast now
Faster than I can stop myself
Faster than you can catch me
Faster than I can survive
My gaze holds a bitterness when it catches yours
You are drowning me
Killing me from the inside out
Unaware of the power you hold in your hands
I hate your presence
My core shakes at the feeling of you around
Screaming in all its glory for you to leave me
Alive
Begging for your mercy
All while holding a knife behind my back
So when you finally set me free from my cage
I can end what held me prisoner
