POEM STARTER
Use the 'snowball technique' to write a poem, where the first line is one word long, the second line has two words, and so on.
Remember you do not have to 'build' on the first word - each line should use different words.

a
smile shining
bright as diamonds.
a smile you created.
a joyful soul was mine.
but that was the old me.
before you stole my reason and love
you betrayed my gentle soul and caring heart
I used to sparkle like stars in the heavens
but now the shine faded to star dust
now we are two stars, galaxies apart
and you still shine bright, while
i form a planetary nebula
forever fading till im

Home
Broken. Pain.
Home. Scared. Alone.
Struggle for money. Hurt.
Home. Lonely amongst family. Fists.
Bills. No heating. Too little food.
Home. Kicks. Punches. Tears. No help. Fear.
Out.
Friends. Friends.
Out. Talking. Laughing.
Burgers, chips, beer, football.
Out. A good time. Together.
Banter, jokes, teasing. Not for real.
Out. Our time. Love. Together, now, forever:...
She
Was so
Beautifully broken and
adorably scary that you
Might have thought she had
Everything, but her smile hid so
much horrible pain, deeper than anything imaginable
That she finally just crashed too hard and
She finally just fell apart, like an old broken

The division between us
Seperating our souls and bodies
Yet my heart gravitates to you
You still will not let me in
I could come in but is worth it
No, I do not want to break your trust.mmmv
It is hard to fight this relentless urge to love
But I stay back, behind the border, behind the severing line.
Seeing others come and go while I cry in agony and jelousy...

So perfectly shaped
Lies on the sturdy
Brown branch next to mine
Mine, which cracks with even the
Smallest whistle of the summery autumn breeze
The green leaf, oh so kind and elegant,
Touches my soul in a way nothing else can

Intrigue
Attentive gaze
Smiles and conversations
Immediate connection is felt
Mutual attraction is easily confessed
Indescribable pleasure brings two souls closer
Feelings of lust evolve into something more

A connection so pure and undeniable takes hold now
Walls have come down and the words have been said
Soulmates, twin flames, red string, the f...
