Poems
Jul 2023
This and that
You feel like a warm day,
I feel like a burning building.
You shine and glisten,
I scorch and crumble.
You rise like the sun,
I detonate like a bomb.
You look like a rolling hillside,
I look like a blind cliff.
You go on for miles,
I’m a dead end.
You’re a gentle descent,
I’m an unsurvivable fall.
You sound like a country song,
I sound like an elegy.
You’re a sweetly ringing chord,
I’m a tearful, sobbing goodbye.
You’re a nostalgic love story,
I’m a painful flashback.
You taste like summer fruit,
I taste like rotting teeth.
You snap like a crisp bite,
I decay like a neglected body.
You grow and give,
I deteriorate and decompose.
You smell like warm bread,
I smell like burnt toast.
You’re a perfect morning,
I’m a worst nightmare.
