  Sweet, Sweet Revenge

  

  By readerwriter13, Lapper, MI

  She lays broken used like a toy, Played then forgotten by some stupid boy, Her heart is shattered she loved him so, When he said good bye all she could do was watch him go, Her trust is torn like the letter she gave him, He returned the paper in shreds so thin, Fury runs in her ...

  Disturbed

  

  By readerwriter13, Lapper, MI

  The wind howls a boom soon follows a blinding burst of light perceiving the dark sky of night, Shivering under the covers these humans know something over their heads getting closer to the bed, Some one asks it to please leave they are answered by a sharp heave, They are sent flying int...

  The Bottle

  

  By readerwriter13, Lapper, MI

  She’s surrounded by friends, She’s alone, She falls over laughing, She’s miserable, She beams and poses for a picture, Tears are brimming in her eyes, She doesn’t have muscle, She’s strong, Her composer says self-confident, She hates herself, She’s a talker, Her emotions are b...
