#writing poem

[thehollowwriter]

I've been having a bad time and turns out writing poetry is strangely cathartic. Please note I've never written a poem (apart from grade 4 but that's baby poems) before and I'm just sort of structuring it to how I've seen in English

Challenge: Try figure out what happened based off this poem, lemme know in the comments and reblogs

(Pls reblog and leave a comment ❤)

Hearts

Lovingly my heart beats (for You) i reach into my chest and rip it out (for You) i place it on a platter and present it to You Your dark eyes, transfixed on a distant flickering screen, are dull, uncaring as You discard it like worthless dirt Your eyes do not change even as i clutch at the hole in my chest and cry Your eyes remain fixed on the screen It portrays a mannequin A disturbing mimicry of life It lurks there behind static hunched trapped in a mime of painted smiles and ill-fitting clothes It waves and blows a ghostly kiss Your way You smile and reach into Your chest and take out your heart You place it on a platter and present it with a loving vigor It reaches through the screen and takes Your heart, head tilted , and tosses it to the ground For a mimicry of life has no use for Your heart Then it reaches into its own chest and pulls out a block of wood It hands it to You with a clumsy stiff mimicry of movement You take it with great joy that cold lifeless block of wood and turn to bring it home stamping in my heart as you go Your eyes flicker to me and Your lips move in a sorry but i know it is about as real as that mannequin's life for when i give you my heart again You will discard it for that lifeless block of wood

bitch this is all you’re gonna get. this life, this face, this body. you better not ‘maybe in another universe’ your way out of everything. sit your ass down and face this. go make tea and have a picnic and read a goddamn book. kiss your loved ones, send that damn text, and hug your siblings. this is all you’re gonna get.

I owe myself the biggest apology for putting up with what I didn’t deserve.

Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.

Remember, being yourself is the only way to find out who truly cares and loves you for you.
