Strange Couple

Strange Couple

Grungy brown hair
Orthopedic shoes
Navy Sweatshirt
Not my type at all
But to her, I guess that’s her type

Hands
Twined together
Small hands
Fake blonde hair

Girlfriend and Boyfriend or just dating?
Can’t tell which one
Strange couple
Either way

I see a strange couple
They see a perfect one
Ripped jeans
Grey skinny jeans

Will they last?
My bet is
No longer
Than a week

  1. Abbey- this poem is really a work of genius! At first your "strange couple" come across as an older couple, but then through your descriptive words I can see that you are referring to a young couple. I didn't know that through a poem a persons voice can be so strong but you really proved me wrong! Keep on writing strange couple poems!
