8th Grade Poems, To and From

An Empty Bottle-Bella

I have many bottles

Filled with secrets, empty promises,

And crazy bouts of emotions;

It made my future ominous.

One I had filled way past the brim,

And it was suffocating and painful;

But today I managed to open it,

Even though I felt quite shameful.

But now that it's empty

I've never felt happier;

I am free to do as a I please

And not be left to wonder.

I know soon I'll feel the repercussions

Of the poison oozing out,

But for tonight I'm unaffected

Cause I no longer have a doubt.

I know what's in the bottle hurts

But it's better than wondering;

If I'd left the bottle closed,

Then I'd be left suffering.
