Mini Poems

Each numeral is its own separate poem! Don't try to link them together, you'll be vastly confused. :)

I.

Don't ask me
to write anything
meaningful
today.

All words fall.

Such are
dying things.


II.

We spent years
trying to love
only to find
that we couldn't love
because we were really
just
in love
with
ourselves....


III.

We blamed them
because we weren't good enough.
So we needed to blame.
We could have just fixed it --
But that's why we throw stones
Instead of climb hills.


IV.
He lectured viciously,
poised to strike,
a feral beast,
King of the classroom.

May we one day know
such passion.

V.

You left.

When you came back,
it was your silence
that had changed.

We listened together.


VI.

We were in love today;
a little bit, at least,
but tomorrow will be better.

That's what she promised me.
