Cheesy Poem

Post by Jr13ramos »

I came across a cheesy poem that I wrote 1364 days ago

HEARTBREAKER
they say I'm a one of a kind
they say they want a guy like me on their side
they say I'm not like other guys
but in reality I'm the same
a guy that just plays
plays love like its some competition game
ever wonder how I got my nickname?
I heartbreaker as you can see
and I'm sorry that I'm not what you want me to be
I hope you can forgive me
because your friendship is something I do want to keep

(I wonder what I was thinking about at that moment? What do you think about this cheesy poem?)

Yes, it may be a bit cheesy but, it is nice. Everyone needs a little cheesiness in life now and again. I hope you keep writing. :)

Honestly your poem is beautiful! I've always love reading poems like, Lang Leav's, Pablo Neruda's and etcetera.

It's not bad, but I wonder who you were writing it to, or who it was directed at - Perhaps some girl at school?

What were you feeling? Misunderstood?

i have seen a man wanting to weep

instead
beat his heart until it was unconscious.

I think that it doesn't seem like a poem about cheese at all! :roll: Other than that, it seems okay to me. :D

Personally, I wouldn't call this poem "cheesy." It seems like you were trying to work through some feelings when you wrote it down, which gives your poem meaning. I don't write poetry very often, but I journal frequently, and I have also looked over past entries and thought "What on Earth was I thinking?" before remembering that I was angry, sad, disappointed, or confused during that particular time. Keep on writing--we are our own worst critics!

Unbelievable. This sounds just like the last guy I dated. I think that this is a good representation of many many guys these days. They don't know what they want, but they know they can't be what the woman wants, yet they continue to waste her time and break her heart. Why do you guys do this for???

Feels like you kinda trailed off in your thought process at the end.
