SIMILES

As empty as an egg shell

As weak as the dying

Gathered together like hibernating birds

As rough as love

Trembling like the strings on my guitar

Praying like a new widow

Bouncing like club music

Smiling like the crescent moon

 

METAPHORS

Heart of glass

Mountains of laughs

War is time

The ocean is a wishing well

The moon is the smile of the sky

This house of lies

My love is the box you should handle with care

Writing is dancing with our hands

 

POEM

And I can’t seem to find the right way to dream

Under the smile of the sky; the moon shines bright

I sense the vibrant essence of the crescent,

And it keeps me alive.

 

But my bones shiver.

My body trembles like strings on a guitar.

It plays a sad, sweet melody

And cracks my glass heart.

 

My love is the box that should be handled with care.

Package my dreams and vacantly stare.
