Estranged Poems - Poems about Estranged

With these rings, we said, "I do," Never planned to play the fool. Too young to grasp loves weight, Too blind to heed its rules. We were D—drifting, never devoted. We were I—insensible, inconsiderate. We broke our Vows, splintered trust. We were O—reckless, outrageous. We were R—tangled, bitter root. We were C—careless, never committed. We were E—estranged, unraveling fast. A word we swore would never be...

We are Estranged But— I hope my image stays in your mind forever —etched in your memory until your last breath. Whenever you tuck a strand of hair behind her ear—maybe, at least once, you'd reminisce about me. I feel unsettled, yet sometimes, I wish that when your lips meet hers, a faint echo of my taste still lingers. It...

The power, abused. The truth, confused. The way, dictated to you. The excuse, they never knew. The mind, free to roam. The thoughts of yours, your own. The shackles that you’ll never wear. The love demanded, who cares? The pain chewed and swallowed down The mind protected with hollows ground. The person you know you are. The conflict, always blamed all on you. The creature that they...

Mom, I am sorry. I am sorry I did not call you. I am sorry I did not text. I am sorry I cannot have a relationship with you for what you call my “selfish reasons.” Mom, I miss you, but I cannot talk to you. Every time I reached out to you, I thought you...

Nothing more left to say, not yearning to be understood, deep. The all-encompassing sky, the impeccable high, through...

Behold how pleasure seeps through to the strangest places; as if it's effects could make a river climb a steep incline. A pink, feathered ball with a pipe cleaner neck and an old rubber nose, stands in stasis. Or should I says hops, where exactly do we draw the line? It's blinding pink is no sign of flamboyance nor...

Travel guides Atlases Maps strewn everywhere Customer Breaks fourth wall Speaks as if you're there: "I got upset when I first heard this shop was closing down.
