I have to have you comply
For i will take away your will to live.
In the end, you'll end it anyway.
Your lean figure leaning over a torn piece of paper
With tears in your eyes.
Some people can't bear being with a bear,
Winding up for harsh winds
Or being so close to closing yourself.
Okay this doesn't make any sense but homographs are cool, change my mind

I wasted time, love and energy
On a boy.
Now the boy is gone
But the feelings persist.
We now have
An army of
Poets with single
Sentences and I
Only need 290
More poets' sentences.
This is going great guys! Thank you for all of your support.
If you would like to participate, write up a line for the poem and email it to me at hardisonabbott@gmail.com. Make sure to include your name or pen name in the email that way I can credit you. I will arrange the lines in a way that makes sense to read.
You may upload more than one line, though I cannot ensure you I will be able to use all of what you submit, I will always use at least one of your submissions.
Please repost and/or share this with anyone you think would enjoy participating in this. I'd appreciate the help spreading the word.
Thanks everybody! :)

it's the new knives
that can open
the old wounds
the easiest
I think I fall in love too easily,
Maybe that's why people keep leaving me.
I have a whole box of herbal tea,
That I bought after she left me by our favorite tree.
It's still my favorite tree.

I have obeyed all your commands
Endured your beatings, reprimands
Your punishments, it was all true
But my mother only defended you.

I've taken years of your abuse
Your own work was my only use,
In my room, at night i cried,
I wished that i would have just died.

Standing on the bridge, watching the stars
Feeling my cuts slowly turn into scars,
I wondered, how can someone be so cruel?
But wondering was against the rules.

I say goodbye, for i must depart
To try and fix my broken heart,
With a notebook and a pen.
If they can't fix me, then no one can.
I literally got kidnapped by my stepfather 2 days ago. Now i'm finally back home. I'll probably write a bunch of stuff about abuse because i want to raise awareness of this topic.

Depressed and angry at the world
I put a pencil between my teeth
My last resort
I hope with all I have
It will make me feel better
My mom once told me that the physical act of smiling could make you happy, and that putting a pencil between my teeth and not letting my lips touch it counts. Whenever I'm in kind of a bad moment like now I think of it. Sometimes I do it when I've tried everything else I can bare, like right now.
