"There’s no such thing as true love, just spurts of insanity—falling over and over again, thinking that won’t happen to me"


Don't leave me,
But go away.

I hate you,
But I love you.

Just listen,
But shut up.

Can I have that?
But I don't want it.

Its ugly,
But I love it!

It tastes nasty,
But can I have more?

I don't like you,
But you wanna hang out tomorrow?

I'm tired,
But I don't want to go to bed.

I love school,
But Is it time to go home yet?

I never want to see you again,
But I'll call you.

It so easy,
But its complicated.

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
- Maya Angelou
When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn’t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out
The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay
If love produced a blossom/I’d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I’d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven
And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel

That poem is exquisite! I really like the layout and the theme and all the words. It's just amazing. Love it. 5/5!

Because listening is not talking...and saying shut up is telling someone not to talk lol

just curious, how is telling someone to shut up the same as telling them to listen? I thought they were opposites.

Thank you for you comment though :)

Shouldn't it be "Just listen, but keep talking?" Saying to listen and shut up is the same, while the rest are opposites...and at the end, should probably be "It's so easy"

Great work! This really hits the nail on the head about what people think and feel xD

Nice! Only suggestion: check the grammar and stuff. A few times, you use "its" instead of "it's". Other than that, great job!
