Your love is what I hate Its bitter and a dried up taste You sit alone on a forgotten plate Food that my stomach can not take I tried to swallow you with wine But the taste drives me out of my mind Like vomit mixed with intestine juice All I can think of is how you make me puke I try to get the acquired taste But your just like the steak that is too tough to chew I try you with milk but you make that taste spoiled too I can't stand that all I have to eat is you I wait for a while and try again But now you taste rotten times ten I don't know what to do with your love I guess I will try and digest it with salt and vinegar Your love is what I hate I try to tell you But you don't understand You believe your taste is only meant for a few So I suck it up and try not to spew No wonder why no one can stand you
This poem has power to make someone feel worthless and empty inside. This poem is a good way of saying to someone I don't like you and I don't care. This poem also describes negative thoughts rushing through the mind of the poet and the poet can't help thinking of them. The poet thinks if he swallows something he is worried about it will be okay but nothing can make the taste good enough to swallow. The foods menchioned "steak", "milk", "juice" and "wine" explains this. Interesting write and I liked the rhyming at the begining. "wine" and "mind" are the best throughout the poem
This one is very poetically written. It has a different feel than your usual stuff, so I figured I'd comment. Then question after reading it is: do you eventually get used to the taste and like it? say to hell with it and spit it out? or keep putting yourself through the torture of 'trying' to like it? For some reason this is actually one of my favorites of yours... Odd.
I think this is a nice. I understand how you feel in this poem though. I think it is because of the people that I love, but they don't love me back. It hurts sometimes, but love is a painful struggle. Nice write. Thanks for sharing. :)
