24/F I'm just an English major college student who found a love for poetry. I know my poems aren't anything to write home about, so I'm looking for constructive criticism to help guide me on my poetry experimentation.
Attached as if our skin is patched together by the red strings of fate that signify forever.

Souls
In times where reality is restricted and numb, virtual spaces become the commonality.

Owning a cat relies on give and take. I give the beans a tiny squeeze and she takes a chunk of my skin.

Dinner is unknown. Nothing here sounds good to eat. F*ck it; I'll just starve.

Defense by Disregard
Inflated egos float up to the summit with fates cradled in each hand to decide whether we peak or plummet.

Air Heads
Always here to almost There but sometimes Near and just barely Alive to cease to exist-- Wait a minute. Who are you?

Strangers
Following the path less taken Over all the low roads and Routes plummeting towards the craven Gateways of Hell takes the travelers Into enlightenment. Those who avoid Satan's Vengeance and forked whispers Emerge from the waters of the lake in Nature's womb veiled in holy layers Encompassing their soul. This ache in Society seeps into the bones of naysayers Slandering the purging powers of equal pardon.

Finding
All the flowers in his pocket and Bruises covering his knees Couldn’t hide the satisfaction Decorating his chubby little face. Every surface inch on his Favorite pair of jeans was unprotected from Grass stains and dirt cakes. Oh, How our father would tear Into him later. It was worth it when the Junior high school quarterback Kindly accepted his confession instead of Laughing like the adults surrounding the pair. Mom thought it was cute how the little oblivious Nine-year-old boy had gotten down on One knee, arms outstretched, as if he were Proposing to his babysitter. They joke when it’s a child, but Quickly shun their once loved ones by forcing them to Run away from home. It wasn’t funny when our Sister vanished from existence after coming out To our religious family. They don’t laugh at Us when we mutter her name. That girl, Valerie, left all but one shred of existential evidence When leaving us for good. Hidden amongst the trees are Xylographed initials made by lovers over Yonder in the suburb parks where the human Zoo couldn’t keep them under watchful eyes.
