Bad poetry I wrote as a teenager, Volume XXXVI

I know I said awhile back that I didn't have any more of the truly embarrassing stuff, aside from Kurt Cobain and Desert Storm, which I swear I'll work up to someday. I'll post those like, right before I go on vacation next or something. Anyway, I was wrong. I found several poems that made me cringe today, including this one. Another one about my first boyfriend Satan. By it's placement in the notebook, I assume this was written after the first time we broke up, which would make me around 14 or 15. You know, before I really found "my voice" and learned all of my important lessons about "structure." What a freaking mess this is.

Love is a myth
The truth never told
It's not like the rose
Beautiful and bold
More like the thorn in the rose's side
Appearing so harmless
Then hurts you inside
Love is so blind
That proverb is true
'Til it opens your eyes and destroys part of you
Just like an addiction
Too hard to let go
The needle that's tearing into your soul
Love is a rainbow until there's no rain
And when it stops hurting the scars still remain
A bird that flies higher and soars to the sky
The loses its wings when a love says goodbye

Man, if you could see how red my face is right now. If you actually want to read more after that, because there is something obviously wrong with you, here's Volume XXXV.
