I Hate Myself
Tooway said:

I chose a path of solitude, dated yes, but never married, not only scared of what that future might bring. But also I am very sickly and do not want to give these genes to anyone. But even the way I am, I know one thing and this is the hardest thing. You need to love yourself before anyone else can. I feel your pain even though I am a man, always hated my body, my hair, me depressing blue eyes and yes that damn fat. Do what makes you happy and try for little improvements, they always lead to larger success. Whatever you choose, your words will always stay with me.

Run Away
peto said:

Sad write
I\'m sure there is more to come from you regarding this situation and how you found yourself there
Get it all out
On a positive note
At your age the world is your oyster
Always darkest before the dawn
Talented writer

Run Away
Parisab said:

Sounds like a place that gives you enough space to be creative and to hopefully be safe-so hard for young people to afford living independently-I am sure that you can prepare for that sooner than later-thank you for sharing your poem…

Love your honesty, dear poet

just, so relatable
thank you! for choosing to share

Dreams About You
L. B. Mek said:

\'From your soft eyes to your warm smile
And the way you refused to leave my side that night

You kept me warm from the breeze outside
During the fire alarm that evacuated us\'..
if you continue to write, in the future
try to maintain this poetic voice
this simple tenacity, you imbue
with your fierce veracity;
it is a treasure, few
can reproduce
and even fewer, can word it all
so enticingly, accessible..
thanks for sharing
a great read

But He Wasn\'t Real
L. B. Mek said:

such a detailed and stark accounting of a seemingly monumental, betrayal
imbued with passion..

The two extremes both needing water. Lovely choice of metaphor. Stay out of the water and you won\'t get ........

Paper Airplanes in Chemistry
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

This is a BEAUTIFUL POEM CALI ~ Something we can all empathise with. You have a BOY who taught you to make Paper Aeroplanes in Chemistry (What would Marie Curie think of that ?). You have always loved this BOY and always will ! Alas your LOVE may never be consummated ! My experience was with a GIRL (from our Sister School) who taught me to DANCE when I was 15. I learned to dance (which is a great asset in finding a Girl Friend !) but I also fell in LOVE with SADIE ~ but alas it was never reciprocated ! I love her still 20 years later ! BUT She is married and a MUM and I am engaged to ANGELA ~ who does reciprocate my LOVE. She shares my site ~ Please read our Poems. I copied your Poem so I could explore it more fully. I am a Chemistry Teacher in an 18+ College. Because of that your poem intrigued me and I now look out for Students on the BACK ROW making Paper Aeroplanes ! Angela is in NEW ZEALAND until SEPTEMBER 2019 on a work exchange ! MPS works by reading and commenting on each others POEMS. You can also build up a cohort of MPS FRIENDS : Every Blessing : BRIAN (UK).

Purple Shirt
Not said:

This really captures how triggering and anxiety inducing something can be. Even though there\'s a lot of colors and sensory words being used every line, the repeating of \"purple shirt\" gives it all an anchor. Its like the feeling of being taken all over the place while really only being shown one thing or standing still. Lots of force here.
