Silence in the Corner

Silence in the Corner

A Poem by Kelsey Desmond

 You say you want to change him, but he's changing you too much.

You said you'd always be there, ut he's convincing you not.

And everytime I turn around, he's there, stting next to you.

You say you know you love him, but I know that's not the truth.

And he doesn't love you, too.

He's taking advantage of you and everything you do.

You say to me you regret it, but to him you never looked back.

You ment to raise me 'cause I'm your own, but instead, you've fallen victim to it.

To him.

I know you think Im lyin'

But inside, you know I care.

Iknow you think of me,

While he leaves you weeping over there.

Silent tears.

You said to me 'I Love You,' but he told you, you can't.

His bedroom is his 'santuary,' and you try to resect that.

But the world outside isn't evil, or worthy to be hidden.

Aside from this, happiness is much different.

The blackest magic sweeps through the air, your heart becomes too vulnerable to tear. 

So next time he looses his temper,

And next time you hold your grip,

I won't be there, a friend, to tell you this.

So he'll just watch you fall, ad so must I,

And you'll be wishin'

You'd listened,

As, now, I whisper 'Goodbye.'

I like the content but the poem's structure isn't great. you have VERY uneven count of syllables and there is little of no rhyming or anything, if you at least fixed the flow it would be good. Good job anyways, i hate car sickness too.

I like it and the emotion behind it
The flow is okay to me.
I knwo about that car sickness
Boy it stinks big time.
Glad you are better though

I don't know if this flows too well, but I hope it does. I wrote it while I was extremely car sick on my phone, so it may not have that good of writing. It's a very personal poem, and all of it is true about someone really close to me, so I know everything that it means, and don't know if you'll understand it fully or not...
