POEM STARTER

Write a poem about a misunderstanding.

Whether funny or tense, see how you can incorporate both sides of the experience into your poem.

Overthinking

I thought Then rethought Then I thought again This time deeper And longer Nails dug right in Sunk into our mouths Until words become flesh Flayed open Left broken Wounds bare on our chest. Then you thought That I thought That you thought not at all About pain and misjudgment Never would call Oh my heart Now it flutters With love and withdrawal For your thought And my thought Weren’t the same after all.
