Sometimes I just close my eyes
and pretend I'm beautiful,
Pure as the snow at three am
Virgin, Untouched,
I disgust myself
My shoes are heavy on the iced pavement
as the sight of the "perfect couple"
Comes into play,
Linked pinkies and whispered sweet nothings,
I could never fit in with that sweet cliche,
Pathetic,
At that I smile and stamp out my cigarette
and carefully walk in my own foot steps home.
You know,
Sometimes at night
I just stare out my window
and write in the fog from my breath
"ungrateful"
Author notes
I actually like this write, and I hope you do too.
My other poem is "who would you have been?"
