Sometimes love is like walking on shattered glass
And blood is all over her feet
Sometimes people are too broken to cure
Her mind as clean as a crumbled sheet.
Sometimes promises are meant to be broken
Tell her that and she cries
Sometimes shattered glass is too sharp to walk on
But maybe the pain makes the tears dry.
(Shattered Glass, poem by salkmaier1709)

The Boy From Everywhere
‼️RATED MATURE FOR MENTIONS OF ABUSE‼️ "You were my one chance at a normal life..." He was a boy who had taken too much jobs but speaks too little about himself. She was a girl who had wandered too much but left too little hope for her future. Their worlds collide one day when misfortune chases the both of them into a common corner, and from then on, both their fates refused to part ways. But as unfortunate as they both may be, their misfortune might just be what leads them to their luckiest charms. [Tw.: mentions of abuse, neglect, and mental health issues.]

Heartbreak At Motel 7!
"Don't come to a strip club looking for love. That shit doesn't belong here." she warned. I knew that she was right. Still, I didn't accept her statement. "But...You're here." ⋆⋆⋆ I was a typical surburan girl before I had met her. She changed me. Whether that was for the better or for the worse is up to you. But ladies and gentlemen, as sure as I was that the moon and the stars would fill the sky every night to put the sun to rest, I was sure that the love of my life was a drugged out stripper. ⋆⋆⋆Complete
Time Can't Heal This
I've always hated the saying "Time heals all wounds." Maybe in most cases that may be true. In my experience with life and pain however, time has only ever bled out the wound. The scars that the wounds left behind though, are often so deep that just looking at them becomes painful to the mind. Time only heals what you let go of. Sometimes letting go and moving on just doesn't feel possible; no matter how much time you let pass you by. These poems signify what time hasn't healed for me.Complete
POETRY THAT STAYS
You don't really love someone, not until they become the person behind of your poetries. When poetry speaks, it echoes through your soul, lingers in your heart, and dances in your dreams. And... it stays. I wrote poems enough for people to ask, "who hurt you?" -Hugot Queen♥Complete
