Two TogetherBoyfriend and girlfriend sing together
Of the future that is to unfold before them
Not about riches and renown but about a
Home filled with joy and life and
Of true love that knows no death.
Monsieur & Madame living in martial bliss
It starts with a vow sealed with a kiss
Eternally him for her and her for him....

ApprehensionApprehension a nasty culprit
Putters outside my window, that mud pit
Pulls, tugs, draws inward
Rushing towards scared vineyard
Emotions fresh, newly healed over
Hoping to not once again spillover
Every time my being is hit
Nudged to stir emotions by some half-wit
Somehow, they stick in the knife and turn
Impale the tender taciturn
Opening the door to boiling emotions
Notions leave, fill me with...

Mental HealthMoth wings aren’t as bright
Even when against sunlight
No one fears the butterfly
Tears smear the maddest cry
A man is scorned for life
Let him morn let him try
Holding on to tender insides
Energy driven by his pride
Amethyst pain from his brain
Licorice lies drive him insane
Talk to him about mental health
How to listen how to help

Dranreb CarbungcoDespite the life I nearly slain
Restore my heart in twain
And ere I wage my cold campaign
No burden shall remain
Release what’s kept within the chest
Endure the silent night
Broken, the edges seek their rest
Change comes without a fight
An old resolve is gathering pace
Resigned to what is true
Braced for the dawn I cannot face
Under an altered view
Nothing demands...

cancelledCentred around the trend of today's commentary-
Anything we say that doesn't fit into this
Narrative-your censored and
Condemned for your opinions-what
Ever happened to free speech? -are we just
Living in chains disguised as democracy?
Chants and placards suit the system of divide-
United we need to stand-but us humans are divided.
Today's society is
Unwell and...

JESSICA DAWN NWAD ACISSEJJESSICA DAWN NWAD ACISSEJ
Jesting with shadows, A twin's eerie grin,
Echos of laughter where the black cat has been.
Skeletons waltz by the dim candlelight,
Sister, you are the one who loves the dark of the night.
In a dance macabre, with bony, tapping toes,
Chaos and humor wherever you go.
Always a joke, a morbid, whispered rhyme,
Darkness falls heavy, we've...

CompassionWith the loss of my son, many people have shown me true compassion. It has even changed the way I view compassion. This is how the wonderful people in my life have shown me compassion:
Ceasing judgement
Offering hugs when appropriate
Making sure needs are met
Praise efforts to move forward
Accept that grief is a lifelong process

IMAGINATIONInspiration should come from our own minds
Many poets are cheating, shame on them
AI is killing creativity!
Galling when people accept the glory ~
It's obvious a chatbot's written it!
No need to plagiarise, sadly some do
All of us have brain cells, put them to use!
Themes like nature are a good place to start
I get inspired by beauty around...

NonchalantNever show
outward emotion,
not to them, and certainly not to yourself.
Cause if you do, they’ll snap the neck of the
bluebird
that still chirps in your ribcage at 3 A.M.
