I got flowers today.

What do you think of my poem? Please, I need help on whether its good enough to send into a competion.


I got flowers today.

I got flowers today.
It wasnt my birthday, or any other special day.
Last night, we had our first fight.
He yelled at me, and said some cruel things,
But I know he must be sorry,
Because he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today.
It wasnt our annaversary, or any other special day.
Last night, he hit me.
But I know he must be sorry,
Because he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today.
It wasnt mothers day, or any other special day.
Last night, he beat me again.
It was much worse than anytime before.
He shoved me into a wall, and choked me.
I cant leave him.
What about the kids?
What about money?
I got flowers today.
Today WAS a special day.
Today was the day of my funeral.
Last night, he finally beat me to death.
If only I had had the strength to leave him,
I would not have gotten flowers today.
-paige.


Im only fifteen. Please dont be harsh. I watched this happen with my mother. She was my inspiration.

OMG! J, I posted this link on that link so she'd realize that's where she's heading.

I'm afraid now.

wow paige, this poem is great! sounds like the poem that Paulette Kelly has a copyright on from back in 1992! I think if you do a search on google you will see it.. you might get in trouble if you submit someone else's work.. you might get in trouble..

I Got Flowers
I Got Flowers Today - Domestic Violence Poem - 9 1/2 Couples: Life Love Intimacy - The Novel
my lifetime stories: I Got Flowers Today - by Paulette Kelly
I Got Flowers Today

Ok just checking.. if you are 15 I dont think you were born in 1992 when it says it was copyrighted by Paulette..
