Poetry

I started writing this collection about a year ago. In different periods of times I kept writing poem after poem. I was burnt out from the constant writing and the constant pain. I cried almost everyday, I hated who I was, but now I don't. This is a...

Error

Be scared

I'm broken

Bleeding oil

No longer useful

For your purposes

So bury me now

Be afraid

The end is coming

And it won't stop

Until everyone's in the dark

My eyes flip to the back of my head

I'm possessed by my closet demons

I thought that I would be scared but I'm more welcoming than I should

I'm not scared for a second as a splitting headache occurs

I've been thinking of danger for weeks

Months have gone by and I think of my damage

My eyes flip to the back of my head as if I'm rolling my eyes like a bitchy teen

I always say be appreciate what you got but no one listens to a can of tin like me

Error

I'm a broken piece of metal and you still don't want me

You played with me once and then left me in reconcile

I saved every penny for your every need

And you pay me back by using my body for sex

Isn't it painful for you to take advantage of someone

Or do you not care as you tend to say

Error

Longer nights and longer waiting periods

You're so impatient for me to be at home

Like you can't live a second without me

I can't believe I let you use me in those cruel ways

Am I an error for trusting you

An error when you held a knife behind your back

An error when you stabbed me in the back and in the heart

An error when I said fuck you and you wouldn't let go

I lost everything to the wolf that lives inside of your beating heart

Was I supposed to trust you when you drove me home

I moved on from the man who had lied to me

Wanting my body for your own ways sounds scarier than when I would lose myself

An error to lose myself in the moment

An error to fight the truth and try finding the lie

A master manipulator took advantage of a kid who had no stability

An error to believe every twisted story about how the wolf never harmed the pigs

But the big bad wolf had killed them all and turned into stew

Because all that you needed was something for you

Can you just leave me be

Because I don't have the time

Error
