Izzy Hawthorne Poet Rhyme

Self flagellation

I hate you and don’t 
Could tell you but won’t 
I’ll hold it inside 
And keep up my front 

I smile, I wave 
I always behave 
But inside I hate you 
But take it to my grave 

You deserve not my anger 
Though now Youre a stranger 
I wish I didn’t feel this way 
Cuz I’m always in danger 

Of ruining it all 
Lashing out to call 
You names, words i don’t mean 
So I hold it in my walls 

The ones I built high 
They chafe cloud and sky 
No hammer and chisel 
Will ever get inside 

Smile and wave 
The smile is fake 
Christ i cant hate you 
But how much more can I take?

You flit about gracefully 
Round everyone but me 
Ive no right to feel this way 
But it makes me feel angerey

I guess I’ll stay here alone 
On the outside of what was my home 
You always felt like safety 
But now it feels like broken bones 

I can never tell you this 
I want you to feel the bliss 
Even though im here in pain
I’ll never say a things amiss.
