Poppi Sykes Poems
She gets up in the afternoon
After she slept in the morning
Checks herself in the mirror,
lips quiver as a tear starts to well
...
My friend, he is missing
For how long I do not know
I just don't understand it
How can you feel so low
...
There is no gateway
Just a hype of opinions
I'm scared of losing
She can't leave today
...
We're in a boxing ring
I'm blurry, can't see anything
Don't know where or who I'll hit
...
She pleaded she was different
I hoped she was straight
LGBT was what you'd advocate
...
The Best Poem Of Poppi Sykes
Last Night
She gets up in the afternoon
After she slept in the morning
Checks herself in the mirror,
lips quiver as a tear starts to well
Pours the rest of the fun from last night
on her bedroom drawer
She fears what had happened the night before
she looks appalled, her face is numb
from all the damage done
but as she inhales the fun
she turns to stone
Looks at her phone
For the memories, that become her discoveries
She does not recall, the brawl
Or the messy downfall
That hurt her persona
she ends in a coma
As the faceless
Disappear
That afternoon where she will reflect
She realises it's happened before
the grim reaper is correct
it's something she struggles to ignore
she cries as she recognises her emptiness
everything she strives for is unhappiness
but this is a mere day of remembrance
of what will happen last night
and so it stays an acceptance
Poppi Sykes Comments
My poems are either visions that I have had or experiences that I have felt. I've fantasised about some of the poems that I have written and so I try and put myself in a similar situation or as a safer option I, talk to people about their experiences rather than imagine in order for my words to be relatable and realistic. I would like my poems to reach to people in a way that they can empathise. If I haven't done that then hopefully the next poem will!

I've also fantasised about people reading my poems as everyone who I show them to (which are very close friends of mine) take one look and say " I didn't take English Lit" or in other words, " I don't understand and I don't care" which hurts me to some extend because they didn't take their time to even try to understand, even as a friend. So now I've taken it to online strangers that will hopefully appreciate it more!
