POEM STARTER
Write a Pantoum on any topic you like.
A pantoum is a poem where each stanza is 4 lines, and the second and fourth line of each stanza are repeated as the first and third lines of the next. As this creates a lot of repetition, try to pick a theme that would benefit from emphasis of certain lines.
On My Sleeve
I can’t stand you
She yells
And I please
I can’t love you anymore
I don’t wanna see you
She yells
Walking these halls
I can’t you love you anymore
I don’t wanna see you
Cuz my heart sinks
Walking these halls
Betraying the hopeless romantic
With my heart on my sleeve
Cuz my heart sinks
I’ll bury it
Betraying the hopeless romantic
With my heart on my sleeve
I’ll find all our photos
I’ll bury it
Cuz it’s easier than to
Talk to you
I’ll find all our photos
And relive the laughs
Cuz it’s easier than to
Talk to you
Was it worth it
And relive the laughs
I’ll cut off the heart
I miss you too
Was it worth
To cut you out
I’ll cut off the heart
