water is not bitter
Nought Feb 2022
i guess i just got used to having sugar
so much so that even just drinking water
tasted bitter
but given time it'll be okay

Fire & Oxygen
Nought Mar 2021
You were the fire,
A beautiful, glowing light,
And I was the oxygen.

You said,
You could not function without me,
But all that meant was,
You were using me,
Consuming me,
To glow forever brighter.

Prices
Nought Mar 2021
The price of life is death.
The price of death is life.
Which are we buying?

The sun
Nought Mar 2021
You were the sun;
Bright, warm,
Destined to destroy the Earth.
And that, I suppose, just happened to be me

House of cards
Nought Mar 2021
Friends are like a house of cards;
The moment you take one out, they all fall apart.
But that's just life

Personal poetry
Nought Mar 2021
People tell me all the time,
That personal poetry is the best,
But I'm sorry to disagree.
Personal poetry should be the best,
But I'm afraid it's not with me.

Personal poetry is hardly as clean,
Emotions spilling off the page,
It's really rather messy.
Feelings too raw, too much, to express,
And not a single thought can be conveyed,
It just seems like a waste of energy...
So sorry if my poetry isn't the best...

I don't know
Nought Feb 2021
I'm sorry;
I'm a vengeful creature,
Unable to let it go,
Unable to even forget.

You broke all of me,
More than just my heart;
You broke my soul and will, too.

I don't want to be like her,
I want to be better,
But I'll worry about that later,
Forgive me, please.

It's your turn now,
I know I'm breaking all of you, too,
But at least I'm telling you,
Which is more than what you can say you did.

"I don't know."

Anything at all
Nought Feb 2021
If we don't even know,
Who we are,
Are we anything at all?
What makes us who we are?

She knows them
Nought Feb 2021
She's so popular,
Knows everyone it seems,
She's so angelic,
The dream of all dreams.


How can someone like her sit alone?
When she's friends with all of the above?
How can someone like her have no one?
When it seems the whole world is in love?

She smiles at everyone,
Passing by,
She tells you she's lonely,
But it must be a lie.

Followed
Nought Feb 2021
And I wonder,
Did you do it because,
You thought I was actually good?
Or just because you knew me?

Hell
Nought Feb 2021
I'm going through hell,
So why don't I get any hotter?

Roses
Nought Feb 2021
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
She told me she loved me,
But I think she loves you
Hey, so, this is my first attempt at poetry, so don't be surprised if its bad
Also, yes, I know I'm late for Valentine's Day ;)
