Discontent
They 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...

The 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...

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 Seeds
Walls soft as the sky, Seeds of courage gently sown— Mistakes are doorways, Voices bloom in laughter's light, Hearts grow wide, brave, and curious. ________________________________________________________________ Author’s Note: In this hidden grove, stumbles whisper secrets and questions hold unseen light. Find grace in shadows and hope in every hushed voice....

O’ 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...

Steady 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...

Premium Member Wounds like windows
Wounds, 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 Drones
The 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...
