Matt Burgett Poems

This poem is about cuddling
And it is brand new
It is written for someone
And that someone is you
...

Our flesh to the boiling point
Like the ultimate fantasy
My dear sweet emo boy
Will you be my sweet emo toy
...

A whisper in the dark
Fast becomes a scream
Shaking your entire body
And waking you from a dream
...

My life feels
Like an empty house full of decay
Never being surprised
When someone decides to betray
...

I feel forgotten by no one but myself
The fault lies in me
And I think I'll go hang myself
Briskly from a tree
...

Deep within the mountains
Up on the hill inside the trees
A child searches for something warm
To help so he don't freeze
...

There is no one around
So I scream it to send
Because I am so alone
And all I need is a friend
...

This is a story
Of a little girl
Who went through Hell
And unimaginable Peril
...

On the first of December
In the year of 2010
The sky will begin to cloud up
And the snow will fall again
...

Deep diverting valleys
Are the roots reaching out
The twisting of society
The unheard silent shout
...
