"I'm fine" is a filthy lie.
Honestly, I want to die.
"It's ok" is what I always say
Though I can barely survive the day.
"I'm tired" is a truth filled mess.
I'm tired that I always feel useless.
"I tripped" is so the ground I can blame
The scars on my arm that are filled with my shame.
"It's nothing" is a lie I tell all day long
Even though life is blatantly going all wrong.
"Don't worry" I tell them so they stay far away,
So I won't have to hear all the rumors they spray.
"I'm busy" I say so I can cry myself to sleep
So my friends won't chance seeing me while I weep.
"I'm fine" is a lie to the world I have shown
When the truth is that
Haiku Battle
This is a haiku.
Syllables have a pattern.
It's five, seven, five.
Hm... five, seven, five.
Will I need each line to rhyme?
If so, should I start?
Rhymes are not needed.
It's all about the pattern.
You believe you'll win?
Yes, I do believe.
The young replaces the old.
Haikus aren't that hard.
I'll teach you something.
Haikus aren't to be played with.
They are an art form.
Eh. Art form, fart storm.
It is all the same to me.
It's nothing special.
Not so special, eh?
Then why waste your time with this?
The door is that way.
Getting smart, are we?
Are you trying to hide fear?
Afraid that I'll win?
Afraid? You're funny.
You d
I said it once
And I will say
It again,
Until you can
Understand.
I want you
Until the end.
Til my last
Thought is formed,
Til my last
Word is spoke,
Til my last
Breath is took.
I want you
Until the end.
My love is
Deep for you,
My love is
True to you,
My love will
Only be yours.
I want you
Until the end.
Because you are
Mine, my man,
Because you are
My personal sunshine,
Because you are
What I want.
I said it once
And I will say
It again
Until you can
Understand
I love you
With all that I am.
I live for the tired and weary
The down and dreary
I move on for the damaged and broken
The quiet and soft spoken
For all the hurt this life has begotten
I will be strong for all the forgotten
