911

I tried to resist you
You're no good
for me
You're bad to the
core
I love you
I hate you
I don't know what I feel
When I’m around you 
I don't know what
or who I am
What I feel for you
is powerful 
And much bigger
and stronger than
me
So 
Help!
Help!
Help!
911!

I love this poem, Alexis. I agree w/Arthur, it is raw and real. Like Tatianna said, very relatable. We've all felt that type of helpless feeling over someone. Real cool poem. Real, no substitute. Love and peace, dear.

This feels so sad and desperate. The emotions in this run high and are expressed loudly. Wouldn't it be nice if a phone call could send someone to help with matters of the heart. Really nicely done Alexis.

This is fairly relateable. Many have experienced this feeling before :) Nice job. I really liked it :)
