Flames dance
Wood sings,
As I give you more
Of my old things

A love letter, maybe
A book
A journal,
A rose.

All yours now I suppose.
I've always thought the analogy of a fire as a way to sever ties to things that you used to love..

Could you really                                      
Blame me?

After all I did
for us.

Of course
I’ve been 18+
since I was 12

But maybe
It was too early
I consider this at the lower end of my works, but I'd love to hear some feedback!

Why today
Why now
I didn’t exist to you
before today
and now you
want to talk?

Preposterous.
Absurd.

I just got over you
and now you want
to talk,
most likely
about how I did something wrong?

Part of me wants to say
‘Go **** yourself’
But that would hurt more
Wouldn’t it?

This has to be
retribution
for my actions
though I have naught  
a clue what I did wrong
Woohoo! Another depressed poem about a breakup, how cliché.

When I look at the pictures that I used to take
Of us sitting together,
saw your beaming face.
The beautiful poses that you used to do
Oh how I wish I could come back to you

Why do I tear up when memories are no more
The feelings worked over
You walked out the door
I no longer exist to you
Maybe its better
That you never see the poem
Enclosed in this letter.
I poem I wrote during a breakup, some of my better work with rhyme specifically.

I find something quite enticing
About the human condition
It touches me beyond words
I hunger to capture it
Frame it
Make it mine.

She exhibits it
paints my pictures
clearer than my camera
I wish I could keep her
forever.

in my dark room.
Heavily inspired by Chapter 5: "Dark Room" from Life is Strange

It was so long ago
When I last felt your embrace;
The warmth is just
A memory, burned behind
my retinas.
A touch I once longed for
Now smolders in my mind.
Locked behind a wall of sorrow;
Maybe I’ll love like that
Again tomorrow.
This is the poem I submitted as an application, enjoy!
