spit in my face and I'll wash it away
I have tears of my own, to do it that way
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.

XD Love the rhyme in this. Considering you've got so much said in such a small space I could really see what you could do with a longer piece. Keep going! You only have another day for the rest of your poems and I know you can do this!

If you need some prompts, try writing about puppies, kittens, dragons, kleenex, lotion, or your favorite character.

I've no nail clipper
So I bit my nails today
Just to play guitar
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.

everyone asks me
if i am doing okay
i tell them a lie

i'm vulnerable
when it is safest for me
to risk rejection

yet i hesitate
and hide, even when i know
they won't reject me

because I am scared
of myself - all of the unknowns
dwelling inside me
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.

my childhood was bright
a light, present in my eyes
flickered, but sustained
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.



When you cut pieces out of the truth to avoid looking like a fool, you end up looking like a moron instead.
