Disclaimer: I'm not not J. K. Rowling, or maybe I am, maybe I have been writing poetry for a long time now, but am to self-conscious to actually publish anything, which is why I post all my poetry on or maybe not...


Bitter Soliloquy

Empathy turns to apathy

breathing down my neck

Why must you be liked?

False, deceptive weakness,

we are all prey to it

Give over, give away,

let the pain take you on a whirlwind trip

Why do you fear solitude?

Relish in it, my dear,

let it engulf you

Overpowered by its depressive darkness

I linger in its shadow

What is there in a name?

Be thy own master

I'm so cold, grown numb

to your heart

Trust is not an issue

for I hate you,

I pity you, your need to be loved.

Nosce te ipsum.

Know thyself
