I look at her in the mirror
Is that me?
I look at her once again and
I undress her, slowly, with my eyes
till the only thing I could see was….
her Skeleton.
Just think!
His other love… right in front of me!
Light a cigarette!
Her heart was rotten piece,
but now it’s a beautiful, pure red rose.
She had confetti under her eyes.
Her fingers were made of diamonds.
Shadows…
Did I finally kill her?
Am I loosing myself in her?
I look in the mirror!
I see myself.
Hello everyone and welcome back to #alexjostories! Today, the new article for Poets & Poetry is a poem by me. I was so focused on getting poems for you by others that I completely forgot that I wrote a few poems. Talking about getting poets with my friends, they said: oh, why don’t you publish one of your own poems? I was like: I can do that. So here it is! One of my poems.
Should I say something about myself as I do with all my other poets? Let’s do it! AlexJo or Ioana Alexandra Popescu is a student at the University of Kent, studying English, American Literature and Creative Writing. She is focused more on writing short stories and fiction. That’s it I guess. I don’t know what to say more about myself. I don’t consider myself a poet. This it’s definitely not an amazing poem, but I am really proud of it and how it turned out.
I hope you guys enjoyed my poem and I will #seeyousoon!
