Ellen Kang Poems

Pain
Pain over here pain over there
Pain in my heart pain in my soul
Pain in my mind
...

People that are Lost
People that lost all light
They are consumed in darkness
Left with inedible scars in their hearts
...

I walk down this dark, moonlit road alone.
Feeling like a hollow, empty corpse.
My heart heavy with grief and sorrow.
...

The only name calling we knew were shortie or booger eater.
When we only wore skirts to look cute and not to pick up boys.
When we thought kissing was icky.
When we thought girls and boys would give us cooties.
...

No matter how much my soul screams
No matter how much it cries
Nobody will hear it
No matter how much it cries for help
...

Valentine’s Day
The day for love
The day for roses and chocolates
The day for hearts and cards
...

A place to myself
A place away from life
A place away where I can be alone
And place away from stress and tension
...

The girl with golden eyes
Beautiful luscious eyes, smooth silky hair, soft lips
Her voice as sweet as a bird singing
She fills you with lust and desires
...

As I sit here on the grass on this warm sunny day
I look up at the great big warm sky
I ask myself, “What do I see when I look up? ”
I answered to myself, “I see warmth, happiness, love, and a place where I can be accepted
...

I have a frown that wants to smile,
Tears that want to stop,
A body that wants to warm up,
A heart that wants to beat.
...
