Plant after plant have all withered
And my gardens decayed,
But you walked by with a watering can
and set my heart ablaze

The things you’ve said in public were nothing but sweet,
This makes me glad we got to meet.

No words come to mind
when staring at your face,
After all a picture paints a
thousand words that cannot erase

Tables have been turned,
And i’m left feeling burned.

The way you said my name
sent shivers down my spine,
You could be anything and
yet you wouldn't be mine.

I wish to say that I haven’t missed you,
But it’d be a terrible crime to lie too.

When it comes to you
all ideas are dangerous,
And the two of us together,
Was nothing but disastrous.

From the moment we started,
I knew you were going to be cold hearted.

While your smile shines as bright as the sun
Not everyone wants to be blind,
This was a contract
That neither one of us wanted signed.

The things you’ve said in private were nothing sweet,
This makes me glad we never truly got to meet.
Had an assignment to write a genuine love poem but I guess not all love is happy?

School *****,
Most everyone agrees,
It’s not a game of luck,
You can’t just be “the bee’s knees.”

School is a battlefield,
Fight to the top of the chain,
No one’s healed,
I personally would rather face acid rain.

Money, Fame, Worth,
Why is this the description of students,
School is a hell on Earth,
This is just a big nuisance.

School is filled with panic attacks,
And stress fueled tests,
We’re all waiting for the big ******,
But no one’s listening to our protests.

Stop with the essays and weekly quizzes,
I haven’t gotten proper sleep since sixth grade,
You may think it’s just a drizzle,
But it’s all a charade.
for my english finals we had a free write essay (poems included) so i wrote this and my teacher thought it was pretty funny and he liked it

you
I miss him,
Even though i said i wouldn’t,
This tale is pretty grimm,
And you’re listening even though i couldn’t.

Your laugh,
Used to be sweet and loving,
It’s breaking my heart in half,
I bet you think you’re pretty cunning.

Story I hate to tell,
But you love to relive,
I’m still locked in your spell,
And yet i still forgive.

Those chocolate eyes,
That caught my forest filled,
You’re like all the other guys,
And my eyes have spilled.

I miss you,
But you don’t even think of me,
Your name is a tattoo,
And i’m just debris.
this is about my ex (if you couldn't guess) i'm not over him really but idk so enjoy??
