venom of choice



rippend fruit to rotten taste
enjoying the scenery
but hating it's waste

blood lined lips
cursing it's speech
a crooked smile
shows crooked teeth

showering your hate
fuels your wicked soul
boosting your confidence
fanning its coal

so turn away
from leftover thoughts
reminding yourself
she is everything your not

Hi, i just turned 40. I have 3 teenage daughters and one son who is 10 years. I am married to an awesome man who has changed my life in so many wonderful ways!!! My poems are crazy sad at times... I fight my thoughts daily and it does help me to write them down. But not all poems refer to my life. I actually have a great marriage and family!!One thing i wish about this site is that we could have messageboards or chat. To discuss different poems. I actually put a request in for one hopefully you do too!! Thanks for taking the time to read my twisted poetry. Its not always good but i enjoy writing :) more…
