A Collection of Short Poems

I Wish You Never Hurt Me

When we first met

I had no idea

You would become so important to me

Yet now I find myself

Wishing we never met

 

Now I’m forced to remember you

For longer than I knew you

Because you broke the girl

Who loved you more

Than she will ever love herself.

 

Poem #302:

There’s expiration dates

On the friends you make.

 

Darkness

Years are whisked away

Yet the memories still linger

Darkness has built a home in my heart

Forever haunting me with the ghosts of sorrow.

  • peace is impossible

    I close the windows

    Lock the doors

    Turn off the lights

     

    I don’t ever want to leave this room.

    I am tired of drowning

    In a world

    That has never prepared me to swim.

    There are ten days left until the first day of my freshman year,

    And I am fearful.

     

    Fearful of drowning under the thrashing waves,

    For I have been taught to survive 

    but never to truly live.

    One day,

                 you will feel pain so excruciating it becomes abstruse. You will feel numb, detached from the world, lost in a void of darkness.
