I'm a young author taking a break in the world of writing. I have experience writing short stories, books, poetry, and reviews.
False Love
Moving too fast
Don’t know what to do
How did I get into this situation
I don’t have a clue.
One moment to the next
And he was sending a confessional text
Knew nothing about love
Got myself into Foxglove
Our kisses turned into poison
Didn’t know why
Wanted his touch and conversations
But also wanted to say bye
Of course this didn’t last
Everything moved way too fast
My young heart got confused
Instead I caused myself to get bruised
False Hope
If we could stay young forever
This wouldn’t have to end
We wouldn’t need to separate
Instead stay hand in hand
You talk about the future
As if we have one
Reality will hit eventually
We aren’t each other's “ones”
We are incompatible-not a fit
I have my plans, you have yours
For now we don’t have to worry
We are still young
I won’t tell you yet
But eventually… it will have to end

BRENDA ARLEDGE from Washington Court House on July 28, 2021:
Good poems.
We can blind ourselves when it comes to relationships.
We only see what we want to see.
When it ends we realize things we didn't see...the writing was on the wall,
but we are hurt immensely.
Sometimes we know a relationship won't work out, but we hold on because it is great for the moment.
It really isn't fair though...because then the heart will bleed more.
No sense in ignoring what is reality.
That's being selfish for oneself.
