Need you.
Want you.
Lust overtakes these
Weary bones.

Want you.
Need you.
For this
God will never
Let me atone.

Need you.
Want you.
Let me
Take you away.

Want you.
Need you,
To come
To my wonderland
Forever to stay.
Made this to help cope, gotta love my form of copium.

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.
Lena Sep 30
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

twitch
tug
they pull
my strings
[not] my dance
perfect,
calculated.

how I wish
you would
let me
pull on
my own
strings

though I
fear
that they
may break
in my
inexperienced
[imperfect]
hands.

so I
dance
with
the pull
of
my [your]
strings.
Insignificance is a powerful feeling and in this poem it really overreaches each line.
