3 Poems By The Guy Who Hates Poetry

In This Article:

I've written a few poems for a creative writing class. If you know me personally, you know I hate poems in general, so I was pretty surprised by what I came up with. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

"My Future"

Sometimes I wonder what I will become.

It pains me to wonder if I'll be good enough.

Will I end up becoming a no one?

I tell them I'm certain, but do they see my bluff?

I want to write for certain that's a fact.

Entertainment and gaming pieces are my specialty.

I write all day until it's time to hit the sack.

The feedback good and bad and yes some given brutally.

The competition's fierce and not letting up.

New and new positions are filling up day by day.

I'm not letting anything get in my way even if they say my writing sucks.

Cause I'll be the one at the top rubbing it in with my pay.

So, for now, I wake up with the sun shining down on my face.

Learning everything I can until the final day comes at last.

This is my dream and it's damn sure the one I'll chase.

To all the non-believers and haters, you can kiss my ass.



This sonnet is basically depicting how I'm a little bit worried about my future profession and how it's not going to be a cakewalk getting there. I depicted my emotions well which was my intention because I want the reader to understand how I feel about the subject of my future.

"Funko Addition"

Dust rests upon the flat surfaces of its

cardboard home.

Congregating with others and welcoming new members.

With its own origin

story to tell.

One that's not easily attainable for the average collector.

Its value is a lot higher than the others,

which makes it stand out.

The rare

San Diego Comic-Con Scott Pilgrim Funko.

Accomplishment, Pride,

A worrying concern.

Four years of collecting

does that to you.

My wallet screeches and despises my thirst for more

and begs for mercy.

I'm woven inside this Funko collecting fabric and

the way out is far from reach.

Even though it's just a piece of plastic it has

meaning behind it to me.

Like the mafia says.

"Nothing personal. It's just business."

As I display the POP among the others I

step back and view them

I see all the countless amount of money

that has gone into collecting

I constantly wonder if hobbies are

meant to be this expensive.

Nonetheless, I keep the

pursuit going to have more.



I revamped the first Funko story and instead of talking about the collection as a whole I tried focusing on one whole one instead. I talked mainly about how this Funko is very different from the other ones because of how it's a lot more expensive. I also talk about how the price of the expensive Funko worries me as well. I like this version more than the first one I wrote, and I'm happy with how it turned out.

"Concept of Love"

Love is a difficult concept to understand.

All the little variables and factors that have a certain role to play.

Not only is it this joyous feeling we crave.

It can cause hardships, stress, and confusion.

Have you ever lied awake at night wondering why haven't you found it?

Questioned whether you made the right decision or not.

Why doesn't he or she feel the same way about you?

Are you doing something wrong?

Will you end up alone and empty?

It's not up to us to make that decision.

You'reYour either living long enough to experience it,

Or you end up living to see others in it.

There's always a light at the end of the tunnel though.

Hope and love always find a way to breakthrough.

Cause in the end,

Love conquers all right?



I thought the best thing to talk about is love because I feel like that's the most relatable topic for the reader. We all have been in love at a certain point in our lives and experienced ups and downs from it. So, I wrote them all down in the poem. I love how this poem turned out, and I hope you do too.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
