POEM STARTER
Write a poem about the heart, focusing on its physicality and actions.
Avoid the kind of metaphors and language which are normally associated with the heart's emotional connection.
The Book of Liars
My heart
Otherwise known
As the book of liars
Why may you ask
Do I call my heart by this name
It’s only because
Of the solitude and pain
Caused every time
Someone lies about something
Sure I forgive
And sure I do give
But apologies are meaningless
If my heart takes it in
I’ve got 200 names
Or more
Written in
This sorrowful journal
I keep locked within
