POEM STARTER

Write a poem exploring mistakes and redemption.

Humans are fallible, and often the best stories come from our errors. What might you discuss in this poem?

Mine To Bare

If i were to write you all my intentions

behind every miss-taken

If all my lies

were organized

placed inside pages for you to find


The rotten parts of me

drenched in ink

And we need not speak

But run our fingers along the lines

silently mouthing sentences


If I could grasp that pen steady

ready to spill it all on the empty white spaces left behind

If I could be as strong

Would I be reborn in your ayes

Or the same beast sullied


Each cross carries it’s own sting

even if it isn’t weighed within the page

It hurts all the same
