Tasteless

You're my emptiness and anger-
My frustration: come undone.
You are no one, but you're
Everything.
Webs of lies I've spun.
And your hands are falling in my dreams
Not stopping-
Just rerun.

I knew it'd never happen
Way before I had begun.

You're a metaphor,
A simile.
Temptation in the worst.
An escape from too full heartache
A silent,
Tasteless verse.
She is close and I am crowded
You're an unforgiving curse
With your honesty,
Autonomy,
Your passion to coerce.

And it doesn't touch a single thing-
Your world will stay the same.
But your laugh may be the only thing
Inspiring me to change.
And in the life I've made for myself
- So heavy and
Estranged

It's nice to have a breather.
Its nice to play a game.


Author notes

I don't like this.
But it's the first thing I've written in... months.
Kinda scrambled, but a little about me and a little about this book I'm reading called The Fall about a man that's in a difficult mariage.

      Is that supposed to be a compliment or not?
      You said "hmmm. you like it" but you also said I have an odd and different voice.
      Let me know.

    that was awesome, great write keep it up

  • I don't think I can fully wrap my mind around it. I almost feel like I was blind folded, spun around, and am now trying to hit the piñata (meaning). Well, no that's not really what I mean. Anyway, this is really... I dont' even know the right word, but put simply, Great!

  • WoW

    I can't say enough about this one! I love so much of it. Just to point out a couple things, "You are no one, but you're
    Everything." = great.... "You're a metaphor,
    A simile. Temptation in the worst....etc." = amazing. The whole thing is just so skillful and relatable. Truly impressive work. I really enjoyed this one thank you!

  • That is really good, I love the last two lines they are really powerful. Great write keep up the good work.

  • great!

    I love how it's mixed up, because somehow it all ties in together.

    Amazing job.

  • really good

    i like poetry that mixed up..
    i write a lot of it myself
    it says alot in fewer words..
    this a great write.. i love it..
    keep it up!

    no need to not like it, it comes out beautifully and as if it was written with extreme care, i like it you should be proud of it

  • this was really good, i liked it a lot. you should continue to write i really like reading your poems .....my favorite part was: You're a metaphor,
    A simile.
    Temptation in the worst.
    An escape from too full heartache
    A silent,
    Tasteless verse.
    She is close and I'm crowded
    You're an unforgiving curse
    With your honesty,
    Autonomy,
    Your passion to coerce.

  • I havn't been able to come up with anything I think is decent in months either, but I really like this. For someone who's had writters block, you did a great job fighting it. This really is a great write, I enjoyed reading. hope all is well

  • I disagree, I really like this... maybe it's because I've never read any of your other poems but I definately enjoyed reading this. It has a nice flow to it and I like your words. The ending is definately the best part

    this is nice, especially the last two lines.
    a left-align would make it easier to read, though.

    i love the imagery in the stanza above the last two lines, also.

    never stop writing. <33

    It's true that it's not the best poem, but it has a lot of interesting ideas and could really turn into something awe-inspiring with a bit of revision. I absolutely loved the ending, how well the second-to-last stanza flowed, and the last two lines. I like the part "You are a metaphor...", since it kind of states how the person is a poem unwritten... unique. Creative write. Shya

    Interesting

    It was alittle scrambeled I agree...but it draws you in and grabs your attention. I really want to know how you got the idea and the story behind it, if there is one. Very interesting.
