"cme" poems - Hello Poetry

Step One: Dress for Success Dawn yourself in armor each morning Spikes and studs Headbands and helmets Strike fear into every man’s heart And look good while doing it Step Two: Be a Lotus Flower A rose, a lily Be a venus fly trap Deadly nightshade Lady Macbeth said it best “Look like the innocent flower But be the serpent under it.” Step Three: Always Have a Perfect Manicure Sharpen your nails into knives Slit your attackers throat With just one swift movement Of the wrist Walk away with the blood working as polish They won’t be able to tell the difference Step Four: Smile Never let them see you crumble Never let them see you for what you are Human. Put up the walls Man the cannons You’re no longer a girl You are a castle And they want to storm you Step Five: Be Polite Swallow the bad words that want so badly To sting that ******* Who cut in line at 7 Eleven Suppress the rage that makes the blood Under your pretty skin Rise to your cheeks. Instead, when he’s not looking, Slash his tires in the parking lot. Step Six: Stay In Shape How else are you going to be able to survive When the apocalypse comes And its only you left Step Seven: Focus on Your Education So when the boys at school Groan because they have to work with you on the English project You can spit out verses of Shakespeare And Frost And Plath And make them shake in their Khaki shorts Step Eight: Don’t Forget Where You Cme From Don’t forget the hours Your mother spent in labor Pushing you through heaven’s doors Don’t forget the women who came before you The women who have tried so hard To be the perfect girl To collapse themselves into paper To roll themselves like dough Don’t forget those women, Those girls. Don’t forget to kiss your wrists each night And say thank you to the stars.

Poem #5 Goal, Goal is the reason why you'd talked to me Goal is the topic we had thats why you came near me I was about to go home with family But you came near me and tallked to me I was praying that my family cant get a cab very fast so that we still have enough time to talked We talked a lot about our goals like we used to. We even talked about how I played the violin You even reminisce my decision to tranfer to japan And you told me that you realized that you dont need to get lonely And you also told me that you will support me on every goals that I have I was really happy but it seems like there is something wrong I cant explain

Poem #4 Sunday, It was sunday when you started to build me up again Sunday is the day when you come near me Sunday is the day when you draped your arms on my shoulder in front of your birthgiver Sunday is the day when I felt happy again Sunday is the day when I felt the butterflies on my stomach again You just smiled when my brother-in-law teased you You just deny and pulled over your arms from my shoulder I really cant read you I really cant feel how you feel Confirmation, The only thing I wanted from you for me to feel better Confirmation is what I need if I should continue or not

Poem #1 It really hurts to see that I’m not important to you anymore That I am just became part of your past That you’re trying to forget what had just happened between us That you treat everything a mistakes It really hurts to see you happy with someone else And treating me nothing just like a silhoutte behind I dont know what had just happened I cant see the old you anymore I cant see any glimpse in your eyes when youre looking at me I missed the old you I missed everything about you I missed everything that makes us connected together What happened to you? Why suddenly changed? Why are you hurting me like this? I want to hurt you too and I really hate you.

Poem #6 While in the cab going to the mall My Birthgiver and I saw you walking down the street I felt bad for not calling you But honestly, I really want to go back just to get you After I get connected to the internet, I chatted you I asked where are you and you answer me just like before But I saw difference and it strange that it seems like you changed how you treat me I feel like an old sister to you not a girl who can be with you I always think about you the time I was at the mall I always think that I hope we cross our way or you passed by at my place I always think that I hope I can see you While walking going to the foodcourt, At the escalator We cross our way I, going up and you going down Your focus is in your bag while my focused is yours only Then, I cant stop myself on calling you It was like a fairytale It was like a scenario that just only happened at the movie Maybe because I was thinking about you the whole time It was really magical, though I dont believe in magic But I was dispointed because you just said something But you didn't follow me You even did not chat me Just like before, just like what we used to.
