Breaking Me Down
April 12, 2022
I try to stay cool
While you make me a fool
All you do is bicker
While the lights flicker
I try to stay sane
While you bring me pain
You lie to me
While I cry away
Breaking the fame
Destroying my name
You just take
Everything is fake
Even when we make
Burning my path
Turning behind my back
Saying things you shouldn’t
Just to say I couldn’t
Why do I love you?
I think we are through
Enough is enough
I am done with you

I think this poem should have included more imagery and other literary devices. Next time, consider prioritizing the content of your work rather than its rhyme scheme.
