hey. these are a few of my poems from english 3.

never forgotten

my heart, my trust, shattered beyond repair.
hows my life? ha, you dare ask
after you deserted me, to save your stainless reputation,
your innocence.
hiding me from your circle of friends,
unsightly.
rejection.
still, i offered friendship,
an offer that still stands,
refused.
wishing the best, you watched me crash and burn,
silken tears sliding down my (your?) cheek.
forgotten, the days, the summer we spent together,
reckless, carefree, art-filled days,
now gone.
you are silent, avoiding me and my apologies.
your reply?
a match to the shattered, burnt, fragments of my heart.
your reply?
carried in my pocket since that fateful day,
never forgotten.


cassandras villanelle

im finally ready to leave this place,
forgetting everything past by and by,
escaping memories, your voice and face.

none could ever come close to my pace,
with my running sprint, as if I fly,
im finally ready to leave this place.

im so tired of being here in this place,
youre chasing away all my sanity.
escaping memories, your voice and face.

you turned and ran from this memorable place,
watched me crash and burn while i, not you, cried.
im finally ready to leave this place.


i clung here for years, remembering your face,
your betrayal, your silence, your reply.
escaping memories, your voice and face.

i know i will never forget this place,
all of the things you did that made me cry,
im finally ready to leave this place,
escaping memories, your voice and face.


the life of a tear

formed, salty, squeezed out.
crystalline drop traveling s l o w l y
down the sheer face,
navigating the slight curves.

finally falling to join its brethren,
siblings, from this
particular
heartache.


pain unraveled

young, made old from months, nay, years
of depression, trauma, betrayal, tears.
a blessing to finally outline all this,
colors and images
no longer floating randomly,
surfacing unexpectedly.
the punch line has been told, my life is now spent.
i
am
quite
ready.


trying

trying to look past the shadows in my mind,
unidentified voices.
trying to find my way.
one last time, I want to feel what it feels like
to feel alive.
one last glimpse of weakened sunlight
before a life of eternal night.
dont take me.
i will at least go out fighting,
landing blow after blow upon your face
until you lay in the mud, unconscious.
i will flee, knowing i can never truly escape.

-jo.

# rules.
yes, sadly, there are rules. just cause im a control freak and i like our blog looking all nice. so. numero uno. no capitalization. unless it is absolutely necessary to the structure of your poem, no one wants to see it. numero dos. no apostrophes. i hate them, and theyre stupid. numero tres. no spelling errors. sorry for those of you who are slightly illiterate. but its hard to read poetry if it is fricking spelled wrong. numero quatro. sign your poems. ill take credit for them otherwise...*evil grin*. awesome. other than that, nothing else so far. you can use whatever font/size you want. any type of poem. etc. thank you.
