POEM STARTER

Ice Skating
Write a poem which could have this as the title. Consider that it might not literally be about ice-skating.
Ice skating
When you’re living on thin ice,
You never need to “add some spice”
It doesn’t matter what you do,
She will never forgive you
All your rights turn into wrongs,
It’s so hard to feel strong
When all you hear are hateful words
And all the days, they start to blur
Will you ever make it out?
How many times must you shout?
Ask for help with no answer,
Maybe you’re meant to be a dancer
Dance around the swinging moods,
And do the things she says to do
You wonder where you’ll stay tonight.
When you stay there, you don’t feel right
But this you deserve, or so she says
Her screams and slaps ringing in your head
The things she does are never nice,
And so, you learned to skate on ice.
