Letters On My Arm

Letters On My Arm

A Poem by starryeyeddd

You won’t listen to me, so I write to you on my arms
This one says I needed you and you weren’t there 
This one says I’m bleeding but you don’t care 
I wrote you this one out of despair
It seemed like you always had to be at some other somewhere 
And it hurts because it’s me you’re dismissing,
With no time to listen, 
Just need your attention, 
It’s your touch I’m missing
Look me in my eyes
I know you see my letters, so why don’t I get any replies? 
I guess it’s worth it just to try
To get you to notice me just one more time
Write you just one last line 
But i’m running low on time,
Because I’m running out of ink
Needing more time to think 
But I don’t have it, so I sign my last letter and address it to you
I hope that this one gets through

My writing style is sort of a mixture of spoken word/slam with rap-like flows and rhymes, but sometimes i'll throw a curveball and try something more traditional. My work comes from personal experienc.. more..
