I'm Gonna Laugh

by Lindsaroo


Ok, a word to the wise, this poem is cursed. If you read it something terrible might happen. (Or not) It murdered a spider and I'm sure it can do far worse. ((No, this isn't one of those "My poem sucks. Don't read it." things.)) I just want to warn you all that it is capable of terrible things, but if you're fearless, then read it please. :)




I'm gonna laugh
When he stabs you in the back,
And breaks your heart
Like I told you he would.

But you deserve it.
And I'll be glad when he does it,
Because you took him from me.

Do you know how hard it is
To see your best friend
Go out with your crush?

It hurts like my heart
Was stuck in a blender
And set on puree.

But I've cleaned it out
And now it's ready for you.
You'll soon be alone
But I'll have my new beau.

I'm gonna laugh
When you show me your tear-stained crap
That you dare to call poetry.

You think you are pretty
But under all that make-up
You look worse than the monsters
That live under my bed.

You think you have friends
But they're worse than you.
The second he leaves you
Everyone else will too.

Because they're gonna race
To be his new girl.
And you'll be tossed out
Of your fantasy world.

I'm gonna laugh
When you take your life
Because you think you're worthless
And weren't good enough.

No, I'm not that cruel.
And I don't think suicide is funny,
But your stupidity was.

For no one will ever be good enough
For that son of a bitch.
But I knew to move on
While he loved you...to death.


My patern kinda skips from 4 lines to 3, but I just couldn't make it all one number, sorry.

Lindsaroo,


You need more than simple statement of wish and desire for a poem to be effective.


Best,
Brad

Ha!
Sorry about that, but I just started maniacally when I read how the poem killed the spider. *giggles nervously*
But anyways, the poem was awesome. Kind of emo in a way that I appreciate...an emo-ish vibe that isn't totally cliche.
The rhythm was excellent and I really liked the raw emotion in it.
Keep up the good work,
.:Ayra:.

It was good. The fact that you were very grounded in an emotion, whether it was real or not, made the poem that much better. I've seen this emotion in other people, this kind of cheerful (or maniacal) vindictiveness that is usually justified. You took it and ran with it, and for that, I congratulate you. But the poem does seem slightly like an 'emo'-y rant. Eh, that's not a bad thing. I'm just getting the mental image of a girl crying with dark mascara running down her face in black streaks, while writing furiously with one of those obnoxious feather-tipped pens in a journal that she usually hides under her bed. Black tears dripping on the page, thunder echoing outside, maniacal chuckles while writing, etc.

Lindsay, I love you, and I love your poem! It was amazing; I can't tell you how many times I have felt like that, and I could really feel the emotion. I wish I could write a longer crit, but no more needs be said!
Lot's of Love!

Um...I flipped my notebook over kinda hard on the desk to write on the next page. And when I looked back to read over it, it had a shmushed spider on it...so yes, that was how the spider was killed. Amazing huh? :roll:

Okay! I must ask... how exactly did this poem kill a spider? XD

But this poem is... weird. It reminds me slightly of a Beatles song in which John Lennon is singing this song, lovingly titled, "Run for your Life."

But yeah. It's kind of funny and very sadistic, lol.

Okay, this was really good. I loved the feelings, the dark nature of this. I especially loved this stanza:

You think you are pretty
But under all that make-up
You look worse than the monsters
That live under my bed.


Because, truthfully, who hasn't felt that way, at one time or another?

Also, in this stanza:

"No, I'm not that cruel.
And I don't think suicide is funny,
But you're stupidity was."

The "you're" should be "your". Possessives and all that. :)

Peace, love, chocolate.

Love, Muffin

Gosh, there have been many times that I've felt like this.

I liked this, it was full of emotion; anger, hate, sadness? I enjoyed reading it and the flow was really good, and worked well with the imagery.

This happens a lot to girls I think, 'cause you always get the sneaky one that ends up going out with the boy that you like, but then it all goes wrong and you think; poo to you, pooface. If you get my drift.

Anyhoo, lovely.
