LOVE FOR THE VETERANSLove for the veterans
I don't know what to say
I never fought in a war
But I saw what our veterans went through
On television and how the war grew
I say people all over the world praying
And I also heard a lot of critics on what they were saying
People pray for love and end the war
There were a...

DiscontentThey said, "you look cute"
I smiled and remained mute
But, Did that really make me smile?
Remarked they, saying, you are beautiful, adorable and kind
"You are someone who's hard to find"
Are these the only adjectives, to which we woman are confined?
Isn't it a bit unkind?
We don't want to be deftly defined
Why are we personified...

Rusty KnifeThe job is done
Bruises and broken bones
He will live to see another day
"Just end him already" chants the crowd
F*cking psychopaths
Poor guy got what he deserved
Lucky him I made up my mind already
How sick you have got to be
To yell like that for a blood bath
He made his mistakes like everyone else
And yet, people act like...

Deluded wants?Deluded wants?, by Daisy kabiu
Was it stupid to want something you never had?
Something that can't be touched.
Possessing it was impossible.
Finding it in all its glory
Raw, unfiltered, and all-consuming, impossible.
Something that can only be given.
Sweet and soft.
Shared, but not owned.
You crave it, thirst for it.
But
Do you really want it?
You see what it does to...

Betrayed by you
Trapped in my head, I'm stuck in my past
Of you and me, fighting with our memories .
I want to reach out, but I can't pick up the phone
Your betrayal still hurts me, my love turned to stone
I lost my peace when I was you . Anxiety and depression was my only friend.
I know you're...

Your Own Promised Land
Burning all bridges behind you, standing on the edge of a plateau
If ever there was a time to see if you can fly, it is now, let's go
There is no looking back, time to spread those wings and fly
This is it; this is now your moment of do, or die
These emotions you are about to...

Sanctuary of SeedsWalls soft as the sky,
Seeds of courage gently sown—
Mistakes are doorways,
Voices bloom in laughter's light,
Hearts grow wide, brave, and curious.

An Enemy of the PeopleO’ Hell!…to step aside, to slink along
the new-found, unstrolled alley road
and leave behind a heavy, long borne load—
Who would not, grinning, breathe a sigh of song?
InDeed, to risk the chances, Right or Wrong,
to journey off the main paths, tippy-toed,
and dare the dirty sidetracks, blithely rowed
by dank needles, gross junk,—who, but one strong?
Our dear protagonist...

DRUM ROLL PLEASESteady beat
Orchestra plays
Trumpet sounds
A Soldier goes to war, but might not come back
Every sunrise and sunset
Every foot stepping march moving in courage
Every salute being an honor
Symbolic nature
Eye on individual military uniform
Thank you for your service
Echoes of War in sacrifice
The thought of devastation
Ashes that rise with a darkened shade
Front and center made by a Soldier
Purple Heart...

Wounds like windowsWounds, like windows,
when opened,
let in light and the breath of something new.
But it takes courage
to unlatch what pain has sealed shut.
We board them up,
plaster the cracks,
pretend the draft isn't there—
but silence has a smell,
and you can only hold your breath for so long.
Sometimes, healing sounds like wind
whistling through what broke—
a quiet reminder
that damage doesn’t mean...

The Road DronesThe road drones as I run away,
one eye ahead, one on the rearview.
I squint and strain, blue-white beams on my tail.
Twin beams, staring, keeping distant pace.
You say, "It's been five years and we barely know each other."
My pointed tongue and its egalitarian wit shot back,
"Well, that's half my fault and half yours, dear."
"Half yours" second...
