Poems from LivingIntheMiddle17
You taught us to be just
But there is no justice.
You taught us to save people
But they are dying in the streets.
You taught us to love...
I don’t want to go back to that dark place –
No, I will not go to that dark place anymore.
I had been tempted -
No, raped –
By the White...
Sometimes I feel like the hands of a clock
Always rushing down, down, down
Falling into that deep, bottomless pit –
Called “Time” –...
I wanted to say, “I’m sorry” for the longest amount of time.
I wanted to talk,
To explain,
To know how this crumbled under a fault of mine...
What is love,
But an incorrigible display of our own assholery
In our protest of being alone?
What is love,
But the denial of a cold room...
