Everyday I strive to please you
Because for some silly reason
I hope you'll take me back
I wish that when you get close
And open your mouth to speak to me
That you'll embrace me instead
And beg me to take you back
But you won't
I know all your favorite bands
And I go home to immerse myself in you
Louder and louder
Because I want to be reminded
Of the time we shared
Even if it was bitter, the taste
You left in my mouth
From everyday
Wondering if I was enough
If I did all the right things
I guess I didn't
Because you still left me alone
Even
When I strove to please you

Hello! The name I'm going by on the site is Trizdy Plat. I began writing poems in ninth grade, when I met my first friend at the high school. I had never really thought much about it, but I've always loved writing stories, even thought I'm not very good. I decided to try my hand at poetry instead, and here we are! I mainly write about love and relationships, even though I'm pretty much clueless in both areas. I find that poetry has a way of communicating what you want to say, even if what you're saying makes no sense. Right?
