Collection of Short PoemsA Poem by Alice.H.AustenHere are some disjointed poems that I had to write in English, however, I was quite proud of the way they turned out so I decided to share them. Enjoy XxThe breaking apart Shattered like ice As taffy stretched Open and open again ~~~ Lead veins Stick pins in Me, please Want to show I feel No more ~~~ Standing on a ledge She thought she might fly The blood left behind Said otherwise ~~~ there’s a little red Suitcase under my bed you’re unawares that i’m Running away ~~~ Someone painted rainbows on me Took me out smiling Laughing and talking Pity nobody knew that someone Tore my skin away When hiding behind closed curtains ~~~ I replaced berry with lemon You screwed up your face I wasn’t sweet like the photos You didn't like that i was more ~~~ We are no jigsaw I’m left hollow inside An unbalanced seesaw Not the irreplaceable one I'm off to find another This long night is done ~~~ Light from my phone Sound from my headphones Touch from my fingers Taste of microwave meals Feels like lonely ~~~ they say we look good then they see our smarts this is our lot see us basic know us last wish they were attracted by who we are first ~~~ Hey love I'm going out You got nothing left to offer Off to find thinner legs I’m left on the couch Bye love I'm going out Sick of empty rooms Off to find better men Leave you in her arms ~~~ You took me as clay A little broken and Slightly smashed Built me into something else Removing all of me as you Rearranged my shape ~~~ I had a car A silver buic You took the Wheel and took Control Now we spin Side to side You stole my Keys to life away ~~~ As cracks in headstones you Crept into our house with Long fingernails that you ran Around her cyrstal glasses New mother like poison running Down our halls onto the stairwell The grass barely growing on her Grave as you steal her place in bed ~~~ I keep running far You took my hand, I had to sever fingers just in case If standing still i might melt ~~~ They see us with bursting smiles And bright eyes laughing They dont see the other seven takes As we tried to find the perfect picture One that lied so utterly ~~~ Tell me all, you say We can make it through this You with your painted cheeks Perfect hair so straight Nails caked in grey You’re so pastel Your degree doesn’t help you Understand a bright palate Like me ~~~ Mirror person staring back Black circles, dark memoir of Last night Mirror person with messy hair A reminder of some other guy Mirror person such a mess Maybe if i dont look then I wont see how screwed up We are together ~~~ I heard what you called me I heard those words float Around the halls Didn’t cut me like you hoped Just enough to make me Leave you far behind ~~~ Sugar and pepper Salt and sweetner We collided harshly Strangest mixture we were Now I thrive on your touch To smooth the taste ~~~
