Idk feel free to share any poetry/lyrics you guys have come up with here. Or even ones from songs and poems you like in general.

I honestly don't know how to write poetry in a structural sense at all but this is just some random stuff in my brain.
I'll start first with my shitty one so you feel better about sharing:

--
Anatomy of a heart:

If I cut my heart in half
Ventricle facing ventricle,
Would the two mismatched sides
Repair themselves back?
Or would one end rot
While the other finds its perfect half?

I can peel myself from these incisions
Reveal to you
I am nothing but
Meat, bone and tears.
A useless animal,
That can't hunt for its peers.

I am the sum of my parts,
Which are never enough.
If I finish it from the start,
Can I finally heal my heart?
--

I know it's kinda disjointed but just some fun word combinations I came up with that made my brain feel slightly less bad.
Anyways share any piece of poetry that made you feel better if you want.

I love your poem, I was hoping to share mine in a new post but I'll share here in hopes of some other people sharing theirs.

Poetry surrounding the heart has always intrigued me. I think some of my first poems were about the heart. Marvelous thing, a heart is.

--(untitled)

All around me
disdained;
I will fail.

I cannot succeed;
I am destined
to be a failure.

I just am:
see how I am

...

In these fleeting moments of my life
I see myself as myself.

I'm losing my life;
I'm not having fun.

Everyone older than I,
they say to enjoy my years.

"Enjoy it,
enjoy being young."

I can't:
I feel so much pain
and I'm so alone.

ik its really self-deprecating but it's the only thing that seems to get the thoughts out of my head... at least I hope so.
