Dismissed Poem by A.J. McKinley

Dismissed

Rating: 2.7


Dismissed
As if I never existed
Banished
Without the benefit of words

Dismissed
My tears did not move you
Banished
You severed my heart

Dismissed
Like an errant child waiting
Banished
I was no longer interesting

Dismissed
And I remembered why love sucks
Banished
Another's arms gave me sanctuary

Dismissed
And I was gone
Banished
And I was alone.

I love the repetion of dismissed and banished, it gives the poem a hollow, mechanical sound, which is perfect for a poem of that theme. Well done.
