What Poetry Did For Me.

By Maxxine

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I needed someone to talk to but you weren't there- So, I talked to a piece of paper instead-           Crumpled it up and threw it away.     Something I couldn't do with you.This is an old one too... my bestfriend and I had broken up for the first time probably 2 weeks before... I'm used to it now when he gets angry and won't talk to me, and that's probably not a good thing either... Written January 18th, 2002 © on Jan 18 2002 11:45 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
