"The poem is the point at which our strength gave out" -Richard Rosen Oh needle! Oh needle,
Why must you puncture the skin
layered on top of me
Causing me
Stress
Anxiety
And hurt.
Shots were never my thing
In fact, I dreaded them.
As much as I dread pitching
A softball game. Both resulting in pain.
You little snob. You think you know
everything, Just cause you scare
The living crap out of me.
I’m sure your scared of something.
Having blood on you, or being
Dumped
Thrown
Cato polled
Jettisoned
Into the ocean
You stay away from me, mister!
Your tip is so sinister
Terrible
Mean
And heartless.
Nest time
you’re injected,
Into a doomed arm.
You think,
Think of what that
arms
fee
li
ng.
He walked
Away he walked
Leaving her heart broken.
Her heart shouts to him, as if it could talk
Away he walks
He drew scars on her heart, as if it were chalk
She knew, unfortunately he wasn’t joking.
Away he walks
Leaving her heart broken
Two Voice Poem
We used to be in love Now she just complains Now he’s never home I have to focus on work right now And he always comes home late, who is he with? Why is she always mad at me So many suspicions She makes me sleep on the couch He snores so much, and his dog always wakes me up
He always complains about my cooking Her cooking sucks. And it doesn’t help That her hairs always a mess He won’t get off my back about how I look.
Sorry I spend the whole day with the kids without your help
I need a break from all of this. Still, I can’t believe he wants a divorce I filed the papers this morning, packed up My things and headed for a hotel. Is he really gone? She’s probably upset, so I left pretty quickly. What about the kids? The lawyer says I’d have a good chance Of getting custody
Because I know they probably want to stay
With me I doubt they will want to stay with their Mom, I’m so much cooler. He works too much. He’d forget to feed them.
I don’t believe this is happening… All so soon. But… she is such a psycho. He’s such an ass. Why did we even get married in the first place? We’re not even right for each other
I guess I really did think he was
The one, id never thought I
Would be put in the position Yup, I hate her. Leaving was The best damn decision I ever made ‘
Time will tell if this is the
Right thing to do. Things really are better this way.
My cat My cat jumped up onto the red stained couch.
He clawed my fingers with his sharpened nails.
I got the message, my cat was a grouch.
He doesn’t like me, he tends to favor males.
I adopted him from the Stray Cat Blues.
He was a kitten with two stubby ears.
He was so tiny he fit in a shoe.
We named him Scooter as he scoots with fear.
Awe he’s cute, I give him yummy treats.
He greets me when I return home from school
It turns out Scooter finds me to be sweet.
The relationship is no longer a duel.
We’ve come so far our friendship is so strong,
I’m so glad we can fin’ly get along.
i love brianna.
shes my best friend.
every fight we have, i try to mend.
she saves my life almost every day
at camp, she knew exactly what i had to say.
Ive never know someone so funny
or gets down as much as her and her hunny.
brianna donatucci is my best friend.
with out her, my heart would have a loose end.
Would you say I told you so ? ( I told you so by Carrie Underwood) Let’s brainstorm for a minute On why I even left. I realized my hearts been stolen I’m accusing you a theft. I can promise you I’m a wreck I’m not a puzzle you can put back together Make it a little bit better by giving me a peck. With those lips that have been missed Would you say I told you so, Oh I told you so. I told you someday you would come crawling back and asking me to take you in. What if I wrote you a letter Containing my apologize Would it make it better? Suppose it was hand written And from my heart Would it make it better? What if the letter was sealed with a kiss? My point, I’m sure you can’t miss. I made the worst decision of my life By running away from our problems I was naïve. Trust me and believe. I’m down on my knees Asking you for forgiveness Begging you please Let me back into your life. I finally realized you’re all I ever wanted. I hope you haven’t found somebody new That’s a night mare, I have been haunted. Give me one more chance to prove I’ll never runaway from love again. Would you say I told you so, Oh I told you so. I told you someday you would come crawling back and asking me to take you in.
