POEM STARTER

Submitted by TheQuillPen

Write a poem about giving up.

It doesn’t have to be negative, it can be about giving up something or someone that’s been holding you back.

Tsunami

Bit by bit

Drop by drop


Its to heavy to handle

And I feel it begin to cave


This dam ive built has begun to crumble.

It was strong

A fortress of solitude

I was confident and content

The barren lands of my heart were dry, voided of life with no room for dispare.


Until you


Cracks climbed the walls; scaling my mind like vines

Spouts of water would stream through

Leaking through my tears, as you continue to beat down on the doors.


Like a final storm, the dam broke.

A Tsunami hurls its way through my veins,

And I begin to drown

My mind wholly consumed by you


Every thought

Every action

Every time I look towards my screen

I turn to you like a breath of air

As im suffocating beneath the waves of my emotions.


I built that barricade to protect myself

Yet you continue to break down my walls

Persevering through my swirling pool of a mind,Flooding me with Desire and anticipation.


This foreign feeling has become addictive

I long for your conversation and endless rambles

I yearn for your attention, your awkwardness and acknowledgment,

Hoping that a ripple of my adoration someday reaches you.
