The Titleless Poem
I thought you were like a star,
Beautiful and shining
But here we are;
Our relationship declining
Declining into practical torture,
I don't want to stay.
There is no more order,
No, that's all gone away
Away from you, that's where I want to be
There's nothing good left
I constantly wish to be free
But I cannot, you are too deft
Deft, I need to be deft to get away from you
But I could never, you are too powerful
The things you do, they are my leaving cue
For example, your rage that is showerful
Showerful, as the glass that rained down when you smashed that window
You are powerful, it is you I cannot escape
My heart to you I indow
Even if you leave a scrape
Scrapes along my body, scrapes along my mental wellbeing
Some metaphorical, some real
For you are unstoppable, undying
You somehow always make me kneel
Kneel at your feet and beg for forgiveness
But I always secretly pray this is the end
For I cannot further endure your grimness
I wish to get away, but you keep me penned
Penned up like an animal
But in reality, you are the animal, not me
You just cannot deal with the actual,
The factual, what it truly be
Be gone, you beast!
I do not want you anymore,
That's to say the least.
It was all fine, just fine before.
Before you, before you came into my life
Now we are here, tears and blood everywhere
I do not want you, not as your partner, husband or wife
It is that thou does not care.
Care, you have none for me
So please, I'm begging, let me go!
I just want to be free
I do not want to be part of you, don't you know?
Know that I want out?
Know I need to be saved?
Why can nobody see it! No matter how much I shout
They leave me here with you, enslaved.
Enslaved to complete every task
Every order,
Like I am some lass
But here I am on the border.
The border of death
The border of escape
Giving it my final breath
Unable to leave in shape.

Hi! I'm a soon-to-be Grade 8 student. I've only been writing for about 8 months, and this is my favourite poem I have written so far.
