I think too much
it hurts too much
so I clean it all out with soap
but
       the
             soap
                       burns
and the pain hurts so comfortably

ignore how bad this probably is... im tired

Some Days Aren't Great

Abbott J Hardison

Some Days Aren't Great

If we're being honest,
Not every day is a good one,
You can't make 'em all good,
Otherwise none would be good enough.

Sometimes you just can't fix a broken day,
You just have to take a deep breath and go to bed,
You've got all of tomorrow left.

It's been a long long Monday.

Can't Things Stay The Same?

Khadi Alza

Can't Things Stay The Same?

We all wanted to grow up,
Wearing the big kids crown.
But now…
All I want to do is grow down.

Time is too fast. Changes comes too fast.
If only I could stop time…

Meant to Stay

Immortality

Meant to Stay

What’s meant stays,
quiet and sure.

True love waits,
even when we turn away.

What isn’t ours
slips,
like water,
gone before we know it.

....sun will rise tomorrow

Go blind and deaf

Go blind and deaf

So you are blind?
you must - I ll be mad unless
you indeed do not need to see or hear

STOP !

No , your actions are not love
No, No, not your words either
No, not what your think, what you belive
Yeah, that tiny bit of your charm
the part you even yourself doesn't know

she's only a dream

Mar 16 alia

dead poet

she's only a dream

she has my voice,
only sweeter;
she has my notions,
only purer;
she has my pride,
only gentler;

she knows i’m hurt,
only better.

she means well;
is it… only a spell?
she breathes a song;
only, i cannot tell —
if she yearns for me,
or only mourns for me.

to me, it don't seem;
but i know —
she's only a dream.

painting of oblivion

Painting of Oblivion

The canvas is uniformly white.
As a screen depicts nothingness
And there is immobility.
A red dot appears
When a mass of void moves
Into life in the form of a life
A beast or a man?
The mystery is no one knows.
Why this randomness occurs

Dear you

Dear you

Dear you,
Be calm in every situation
As the rain stops
You've to water them
Again- by yourselves.

Not Every Poem is Written About Love

Lizzie Bevis

Not Every Poem is Written About Love

No,
not every poem
needs to bloom
with romance
to make a heart grow
full and wise;
There is poetry
found in survival,
in unhappy endings
and goodbyes.
Not every poem
must woo the reader,
or make their yearning soar,
some poems taste
like bitter coffee grounds
and nothing much like love.
