spit in my face and I'll wash it away
I have tears of my own, to do it that way

XD Love the rhyme in this. Considering you've got so much said in such a small space I could really see what you could do with a longer piece. Keep going! You only have another day for the rest of your poems and I know you can do this!

If you need some prompts, try writing about puppies, kittens, dragons, kleenex, lotion, or your favorite character.

I've no nail clipper
So I bit my nails today
Just to play guitar

everyone asks me
if i am doing okay
i tell them a lie

i'm vulnerable
when it is safest for me
to risk rejection

yet i hesitate
and hide, even when i know
they won't reject me

because I am scared
of myself - all of the unknowns
dwelling inside me

my childhood was bright
a light, present in my eyes
flickered, but sustained
