sick, angry, unhappy, bored, confused

Lexi | 23 comments The words you said made me so angry,
I now feel sick.
You said you were bored of our relationship.

If you were unhappy,
Why did you continue to lead me on.
You could've ended things way before,
but why did you choose to hurt me?

I am so confused.
I loved you,
I thought you felt the same.

But I guess all you wanted to do,
was play a game.

(Not sure if this was good, but I really struggled with trying to make these words fit together)


Time, Cry, Fly, Years, Tried

It was years
but it felt like yesterday
we were kids
playing on a rainy day

I thought we were inseparable
We were two matching shoes
we did everything together
we were stuck like glue

But time can fly
everything can break
The friendship we've been building
Broken in an earth quake

I have tried
to glue everything
but it keeps breaking
It worsens and I cry

I wonder
what if it hasn't ended
maybe we will see each other
Another time, someday




*end, break, shatter, find and hope*

Milo | 15 comments end, break, shatter, find and hope

I was looking
And searching
It made me
blind to all others,
With everything
That wasn’t right about
You

To find you
Was a gift
Yet in the
End.
it shattered
me

Made-
me,
break into an
Unusable vase
That no one
Wanted or needed

I got over you
Faster
Then how long
It took
you
to end
What you called
“Us”

And in that end
I found more
Hope,
Without you.



Next set of five: love, hate, card, dice, life


message 10: by Katherine (new)

Katherine Green | 1 comments They say that life is just a
pair of dice out of your control.
You shake them hard and hold your breath,
And pray it isn't ugly death.

Or maybe life is just one card
handed to you at birth
You get it and it's good or hard.
Mine feels like a spade, black and deep,
A secret that I have to keep.

And in this game, the thing called love
Is the big prize I'm dreaming of.
But every time I think it's near,
I only feel the shaking fear.

And when the dice land on the floor,
And you don't have that card anymore,
That's when the bitter hate comes in,
And burns the place you're living in.

So let them play their stupid games,
I'm tired of remembering names.
I'm caught between the loveand hate
And I don't know my own damn fate.

Streetlight, rain, window, empty, whisper


message 11: by Leonora (new)

Leonora | 8 comments I don’t know if this is any good but I am new to this and wanted to try


And empty window in a street with no name
A place where you can here the whispers of the rain

In the silenced street where I bear no name
Shall I roam without fear and shame

I might dance under the starry night
Entertaining both me and the sordid streetlights

I hope the stars my prayers might hear
A silent scream of love, longing and despair

Sordid, yearning, care, pain, shout

Lexi | 23 comments Wdym you’re not sure if this is good?! It’s awesome ✨


message 13: by Ophelia (new)

Ophelia (Pfp w Savannah) | 45 comments Still Here”
It’s sordid,
how I still wait for you.
The room smells like rain and regret,
and I keep thinking if I just care harder,
you might come back.
There’s a hole where your voice used to sit.
I press my fingers into it,
just to feel something.
Yearning—it’s a quiet kind of scream,
the kind that burns slow,
like metal left in fire too long.
Pain doesn’t fade, it just learns my name.
It crawls into bed beside me
and breathes.
Sometimes I want to shout—
just shout
until the sound cracks open my ribs
and something holy or ugly
finally escapes.
But I don’t.
I just sit here,
breathing in the sordid air,
still waiting,
still caring,
still here.



I did my best!
