POEM STARTER

Beneath the Surface
Write a poem with this theme in mind.
Done, Done, Done
Hate that I entertained you…
Why am I like this?
Accepting to a fault…
And NO, I don’t deserve this.
Goodness outpouring from my veins…
I can’t help it.
And inate need to help anyway I can…
And you took, when it was convenient.
Beneath the surface I am good.
Misunderstood, but good.
What are you though?
Twisted in some sense…
People don’t treat people that way,
When they ‘care’ about them.
I think maybe I was a means to an end…
The only one who could really be counted on.
But you took my kindness for weakness,
One to many times.
And now I’m done.
