i don’t know what living feels like

 i am sad

i cry i pour

 

i don’t smile 

 i am angry

i yell i burn

the  thing about 

feeling 

is when i love 

i give  wings 

 perhaps 

that isn't 

a good thing 

they always 

leave and 

 

 my heart is broken 

i grieve

Rupi Kaur, Milk and Honey


The author's comments:

I used a quote from Rupi Kaur from her book, Milk and Honey. I did a blackout poem with it for my english class and ended up liking  the outcome! This is her work completely, I do not take credit for her words only the way I edited it to be a blackout poem.
