You are as pretty as a flower,
Satiny as silk.
I wish I could remember,
Why I have so much guilt.
You're like a virus,
You live inside of me.
Grabbing on to my vocal cords and
Tearing at my teeth.
There's nothing I can do.
I'm as defiant as they get,
Yet I let you control everything.
You're like everything I regret,
When you come I surge with upset.
You come in waves,
Then you leave for days.
I find myself missing you when,
you're not here.
I find you want yourself to be a fear,
For I am starting to fear,
You.
I always said I was never scared,
But now all I see is red,
And I can't stop.
I miss it so much.
You're doing everything,
Maybe I'm just forcing the blame.
After all, you're just another part of me.
You tell me I'm bitter, and that it will be better this way.
Whisper to me again that I'm a fucking quitter,
you're just using reverse psychology.
I'm already messed up enough and you, no, I'm messing myself up more.
Please just close the goddamn door. I don't know how much more I can take, before it breaks me.

..Sonnets for somebody..
PoetryNot actually sonnets, just free verse poetry. These poems are for the words I'm afraid to say to their faces. They're sonnets for somebody, I'll let you decide.
