be careful!
I’m a rusty nail
and I’m sure you should get a tetanus shot before you ever handle me
or ar least fix things at your own discretion
I warned you
..
my feet are getting cut
as they curl on tightrope
and I hate the way its been
the only thing I could walk barefoot..
you push me in increments of inches at a time ]
and all I can remember is that this is how
we ended up with continents
like the way they all leave some day
if I had dimes for every time someone promised that I’d never have to worry about anything again
I’m sure I would have one
and even then that couldn’t buy me anything
like the paper to write a
“I told you so” card on
and what about me is so dreadfully barbaric?
the way that I let simple words mean things that
only monsters could conquer>?
I slay dragons and then cry tears to heal them
I’m hypocritical
I had high hope for us
I tried with all my might
but
they never like it when you are indecisive
and
can’t plant your two feet in the mud
I was wearing flats!
I’ve got skeletons chained to ever part of my body and I drag through out the day
but the last thing I ever wanted was to go to bed and realize
that my entire life had crashed
I was sure
positive that I never again would see how wonderful life could be
I would never in any way get to feel or taste
touch
real love again
because he told me that I couldn’t grasp such a concept
and
I swear to you
that
if they taught this shit in school
we all would rather take calculus
I learned I had to be one dimensional and
stomp out all this radical thinking
let thunderheads draw me out and pick and choose their favorite fake laugh
I’ll never find someone to love me
the me that
stays up all night
just to see the sun rise...
Author notes
rant?
ok so here is the thing
last night
was so breaking that i think i cant write anymore
the things that were said
the things
that he said about me
called me
yeah apparently no one will ever love me
this prompt was really ironic
the day someone told me that
i had to write a poem about it
funny?
i guess
point is
when are you going to shut up and just save me?
the answer
you havent even noticed.
and once again i know this is crap
im sorry
the whole time i was writting this:

i would've listened to the song but it's no longer available.
fuck.
i don't believe i'm even capable of being loved. i'm needy and want to live a life that i can never have. i will probably end up collecting paper weights and i will most definately wear my slippers to the store.
you're amazing. you have such a way with words i don't see why he would say something so hurtful and cruel. it's not true. someone will love you.
i promise, my dear.
'I’m hypocritical
I had high hope for us'

I’ll never find someone to love me
the me that
stays up all night
just to see the sun rise...
this is absolutly beautiful, amazing....
so sad,
if they taught this shit in school
we all would rather take calculus
your poetry is amazing, one day that guy will wake up and realise he just lost the best thing..

really sad
to think that you must change to find someone to love you! People are afraid to let themselves really go for fear. fear of rejection, but you have already experienced it and ...tada your still here. You didn't disappear or die...you kept going. If you did it once you can do it again. I was divorced twice. Twice I left everything I had and started over. I have a great life now and a loving partner to share it with. She is everything to me, but she wasn't the girl of my dreams. Now she is a dream girl. We have grown together and our life has evolved into something others envy. We were told that we would never last and all that told us that are divorced. You are a great catch! They just don't know what is in front of them. Don't change because if you really want to find love you can't be anything but yourself. If you try to be something your not...they will figure it out someday and you'll have to start again. I love you, The Shaker
