24 Poems ~ 24 Hours
Hello everyone this is my first poetry marathon and I am super excited about it... I haven't been writing all that long but hope you enjoy my entries. I am from MI between Detroit and Flint. If you want to see more of my work you can check me out on Instagram @cc_writes.
The broken lie at the whim of a keystroke
Wondering if they have the ticket
Insecurities running high
Hoping they are the one
Wrong steps
Eggshells cracked
This could be the end
A million fish in the sea
Relationships being shattered by technology
C. Churchill
Where am I to go from here
This prompt is putting my OCD in fear
Writing twenty lines removing eight
What will become of this poems fate
Why must my mathematical mind frenzy
The coffee I drank is being lazy
How will I ever get through
Number four is only two plus two
A long way to travel
My words may unravel
But the prompts are mere suggestion
This poem I choose a different direction
C. Churchill
We stand on this cliff
Teetering in embrace
Staring into the blood red sky
Every mystery awaits
In these arms we will melt
Soon becoming one
Under this brilliant view
Two flames racing the sun
C. Churchill
Abandon this heart
Before it changes you
Before it devours you
A love between what is real and what is magic
Forgive me for I have not the fight to leave
This fantasy draws me in
A constant beat
A spiral we will dance
Until we fall
C. Churchill
Tick tock
Tick tock
The morning is still
Drips from last night linger
A cup of hope
Scalding hot resiliency
Whispering
You got this baby
C. Churchill
