POEM STARTER

Write a poem about pet peeves.

Little things that annoy you – perhaps they are stand-ins for bigger problems, perhaps they are nothing more.

Never The Same

Poetry

I hate how you run your fingers through your hair

And how you smile at me

When I’m unprepared

I hate the way you look at me

It catches me off guard

It makes me freeze

I hate how you say my name

I hate that ever since you

I’ll never be the same

Trauma may be scarring but it also gives birth to beautiful writing.
