I speak the thoughts
that must be said
the ones my poet
has in her head.

Her pen has carved
emotion into my pages
her love and passion
her worries and rages.

Why must I always express,
the assortment of emotions
she always wants to suppress,
whenever she's under stress?

I figured out a solution,
that'll save me and every tree
all poetkind would love it...
did I mention that it's free?

It's called Hello Poetry!
πŸŒ³πŸ’–Gotta love HP! πŸ’–πŸŒ³
A place where I feel safe,
Where my art is noticed,
Where I am somebody.

Raise your cup for a toast,
"I love HP!"
This is a great place
Let's play a game of guess who,
They've got HP riled up,
My poem blazing on the front page,
So many supposed alter egos I can't even count!
Did you get it?
My person was, Paul! Paul?
Who even is Paul?
His name keeps coming up I'm confused where this person fits in.
What if I'm wrong?
What if I'm on the wrong side?
What if they're right?
And they did nothing wrong?

Maybe I need more proof,
Maybe I need to let this go,
I want this to be a safe space,
I pray for a safe HP.

Is there a way we can have peace,
Where no one gets hurt anymore,
Is there a way we can have peace,
Without tearing apart HP?
I haven't seen any proof one way or the other for anyone. I want the best for this site, to be a place where people can find safety in art. Is there a way we can take away real predators and not have people falsely accused as one?

no matter the cause
of your tears

whatever the hurt
which bruises your heart

for any terror
that haunts you

it is a grief to me
that you should suffer so
