A C Leuavacant
Spin it forwards or in a loop
Past it's expiration date
Beat the dead horse with the door
God you've never been so late
Take a snore
Nothing more
God you're such a dreadful bore
Look at me
Please leave me be
If not then don't you have the courtesy
To stay with me eternally?

You never liked me,
              
              you never loved me
                            
                           and you never could.
                                
                       ­          Cause you never saw me,

                          you never knew me

       and you never *would.

"DEAR BLANK CHALLENGE" PLEASE PLEASE READ THIS AND REPOST TRY TO KEEP IT GOING:  HELLOPOETRY "DEAR BLANK" CHALLENGE SECRET SANTA POEMS EXCEPT NOT SECRET AND NOT SANTA RANDOM ACT/POEM OF KINDNESS STRANGER POETRY APPRECIATION

I thought it might be nice to do like a secret santa thingy on hellopoetry only not secret and not santa… what I mean is, find a random stranger you literally have never met and do NOT know at all whose poetry you like and spend actual time genuinely reading their work, picking out your favorite lines and responding to them, pondering them, etc. Write something positive to them and post it as a poem with their name in the title. The “DEAR BLANK” challenge only you put their name instead of “blank”. I think we could all use a little recognition that we exist and are worth something since everyone seems a little depressed on here (including myself) which is fine, it’s a great outlet but it would be nice for people to just spontaneously find that a random stranger spent time in their life just to recognize you and care about your poetry. To write a kind poem/letter to them responding to lines in their poetry. If you need an example I just posted DEAR IMALRIGHT which was exactly what I meant. Check out imalright's poetry btw it is amazing.
I plan on doing for more than one person and I'd love for you to do the same. Spread a little kindness, we could all use a little.
Also message me if you are going to do the challenge and message the stranger you do the DEAR BLANK challenge for so they know to look for and read your poem.
I just thought that Imalright who was a perfect stranger to me seemed like a wonderful poet and a wonderful person based on her poetry so I chose her.
You do that too if you accept the DEAR BLANK challenge.
INCLUDE DEARBLANKCHALLENGE AS A HASHTAG IF YOU DO THE CHALLENGE SO EVERYONE CAN FIND THEM
please repost this over and over so we can get as many people involved as possible and try and make a difference in a couple people's lives because I just want to make everyone feel loved but I'm just one girl, I can't do it alone. Please help me with this and join me in the DEAR BLANK challenge. Take time out of your day to properly appreciate someone's poetry who you do not know.

PLEASE REPOST LET'S GET EVERYONE INVOLVED!!! ;D
THANKS!

We're Passively going with the flow
With the resonating notion
That "maybe I should be  
more like me
And less like you "

But nobody allows it
And it takes a faith
That you won't find in church
'Cause even Christians love you
Only to change you

So Destroy the subliminal slavery
And this we'll begin to see:
That Conformists will be lost
And Indiviuals will be Free

They will flourish
From every end of the earth
Doing whatever it is they desire
Without transgressing what is right.

This would be our souls' freedom
But we're outnumbered by them,
Them that are afraid of being free
Knowing well they'd really be lost.
Trapped in this system.

Your fingers ran up and down my arms
like ants skittering back to their home
i felt a prickle, a chill
i couldn't tell if i wanted to be held
to run along your surface so fast,
you could never catch up
or if i wanted to be crushed under the weight of your shoe

Take a breath,
scratch those meaty pecks and arms.
Pantyhose, hot air, sweaty heads.
I feel the anger in my fist.
Cheese, secured doors and rooms,
Nothing but yelling and screaming in my head.
Liquor, ice, cold floors.
I hesitate, bare to move a muscle on the bed.
The cold winds freeze my fingers, I can't text you back.
Rough nights, feet fights, lip biting parties every Saturday.
I punch the room, you think I'm clingy.
Hungry for everything,
Yet don't want anything.
I sit back and watch destruction of bombs and nudes from my window.
Isn't thou so lovely?
Churned stomach, gasping for air, gasping for school to end.
God. Has. A. Plan.
Lingerie silk on the kitchen counter.
Feeling on the gold.
Static TV wrecking my ears and mind.
I love the smell of liars in the air.
Does this make sense to you?
If not, look within yourself.
Everything has a symbol, irony, metaphor.
Slap that lion for attention,
He'll roar till the moon is full.  
Think what you see on this page.
I'll catfish your soul and succulent body.
