POETRY a collection of my poems from thoughts that have come to me at random More

introduction
never ending
touch
trading eight for two
strangers once more
beauty of the soul
self-awareness at last
walls of despair
the love you gave me was all a lie
a platonic type of love
the girl from the future
who knew darkness could hate
the souls of what is unlike
i sold my soul to the devil just to spite you
last is just first but in a different direction
a strong hope
a brutal way of kindness
our love is broken
drowning in words
all i feel is numb
the single touch that could break us
made of water
from loss to gain
it'll be okay
poison laced hands
lethal love

the red you hated

even what i'm doing now is for you

s. g.

there was another poem on tik tok that gave me the idea for this one
