I sit here in a room full of people with a big smile on my face as the people start leaving my smile goes down until I'm in my room laying and crying.
-Hannah Rae
Looking through and reading poems
here on our wonderful site
I am so proud to be here with you all
Where else could it be so right.

You are all all brilliant with the written word
Each and every letter placed just so.
You put smiles on faces, bring tears to eyes
I know if I want cheering up I haven't far to go.
sing to me the songs of tomorrow
you seer of visions

let me hear your heart
breaking on the shores of nothingness

and while you are not looking
let me disappear

written out of history
the bow after the final scene
Submerged underwater—stayed right there,
letting my body loose and my eyes slowly open.
I took a breathe and watched as the bubbles
escape from my nostrils—I could clearly see this
vast blue ocean before me as I drift away from
All I Once Knew.
Sunk back to the phase of being kept in the womb
My mind has now been refreshed, awaken.

when pain
was soaked in tears
and dreams
was broken by days
my whole felt unsafe
'cause heart
indulged
in perilous ruth.
But,
these words struck me,
FAITH!
engage
not in hate
and
embrace vates....

And darling,
Just like the rain

I knew that
It was too good
For you to

Stay.
