Kristen Donovan Hutt Poems

No one wants to believe
So we just sit and grieve
This should never have happened
And the weight of pain cannot be lightened
...

I thought that it was right
That your love for me was true and bright
But I guess I was wrong
And I feel like giving up, I’m not that strong
...

Just because I’m a teen
Don’t judge or treat me wrong
Don’t pick me last because I’m not as strong
Don’t stereotype me because of a song
...

Snow flutters over silently
Like the beautiful wings of a butterfly
It lands on the ground, and rests on a tree
By floating from the heaven’s high
...

We talked all summer
We were always together
You said you loved her
I said you could do better
...

Every day, lives are lost
Part of war, that’s the cost
Their jobs are to fight and defend
For most of them, it’s the beginning of the end
...

It hurts to be told you’re not allowed back home
Not able to return to path that you had been shown
It feels like you’ve suddenly been stabbed in the heart
You want to cry but you tell yourself not to start
...

In reality, what is love?
Is it spiritual like a soaring dove?
Does it always fit perfect like a glove?
Or keep you going with a push and shove?
...

Not knowing when you'll meet again
Unaware of what is around the bend
Missing him, you know it hurts
Living everyday, it only gets worse
...
