I've found
that wite out is very helpful

But I've also found
that wite out only erases

certain mistakes

How I feel when I'm with you
happy
yet
helpless

7 billion people
and I found you

Around you, I feel like air
Only when you ignore me I feel the weights pulling me down
You can make me feel like I'm on cloud 9
or you can turn my day into a nightmare

I try to write
but
I feel blank
one word
delete
another word
delete
A whole terrible poem
delete

My poems are just words
on a screen
that you read and wonder
why its so hard to say these words out loud
why is it easier to write them down
and you read them out to yourself

Turns out
I don't know as much as I thought I did
about you

Me sitting there
reading your poem
Trying to understand what it means

lol
Just a simple text message
Can turn into a war
Tears running down people's faces
Terrible words typed out
hitting the send button
lol

I am your shadow
Your follower
You are my leader

You say
I do

I smile
when you smile

I laugh
when you laugh

I feel like a clone
But you never cry
you never frown
You are like the only shiny penny in my wallet

What are you writing?
why are you writing?
Everyone wants to know

But I don't want them to know

that I write poems

and what
my poems
are about

My emotions are like
similes
same
but
different
Frightened
and sad
Completely different
but
also the same

When I should be happy
I'm
sad

Similes should be one way
but they are flopped
don't make
any
sense
like my
emotions

It's a simile itself
My emotions are like similes
