maggie signaigo Poems

So I am really new at this poetry game
shouldn't the end of each line sound the same?
It seems harder that way to find a word
to say what you feel or what you want heard.
...

I'm just a shade this side
of suicidal
a travesty last week
on American Idol
...

Parochial school
and little plaid skirts
White cotton undies
Inadvertent flirts
...

Almost a princess
Missed it by inches
Another dream, she’ll never find
She never forgets
...

Her days are mostly free and bright
As she tends her daily routine
Clean the house and walk the dog,
A few phone calls in between
...

I have a picture in my purse
by now it's pretty old
on the back there is a verse
and I value it like gold
...

Mom and Dad have problems
Be sure it does not show
Close the door…turn on the shower
So Maggie does not know
...

I know you love me... you've often told me so
but deep in my heart...I feel I have to go
my feelings for you... are less than you need
this marriage you want...surely will not succeed
...
