Red petals spin round, when hitting the floor they fill black
black petals scare the butterflies in my stomach where they once made such an impact
Feelings of emptiness fill the tears that pool into my stubborn eyes
anytime you touch me now I love it only when I'm wearing a disguise.
I love you, but I hate myself more
Young love never has a warning sign of growing into someone you may no longer adore.

My comments on the poem "I am not me” by Trin
Petals are blown off the flowers and fall to the ground. From red they turn to black. Butterflies in the stomach means being anxious or worrying about something. The black petals appear to be worse than butterflies in the stomach. The poetess has feelings of emptiness; she is going through a despondent phase. “Tears pool…” : cries. “stubborn eyes” : not giving up, struggling to cope. “only when I am wearing a disguise” : not liking it really; putting up some make-believe. “I hate myself really” : a conflicted relationship; at times the love is not reciprocated. “never has a warning sign of growing into someone you may no longer adore” : inexperience means you don’t get warnings that you might be changing yourself into somebody you won’t like; an unwelcome transformation.
