Hats Held
Valor, thy call is a countryman's claim. Nowhere but not quite alone in the game. Thunderbolt, twilight is perfect for you! Hope will accrue before we all turn blue... Singular, smiling. Sink fast in the sea? Maybe not, young fellow. Then we'd be free? Not on your life nor the edge of a knife! Fain would the demon-sultan blow the fife... Trickling through...

You held the knife
You held the knife. All along I thought it was fine because you held the knife But apparently everything was wrong I was wrong Wrong about you and all that I thought you could be I thought I could trust you. But no. You held the knife facing me Waiting for your chance Holding the handle with all you might As it sits in...

We are loved and held dear

We are loved and held dear By Michelle Morris 05/04/2025 The birds sing effortlessly With Joy and Wonder Their Happiness is unbridled Their Peace shared with everyone The woods are silent There is no human interaction All I hear is birdsong and a babbling brook Nature's blessings without distraction...

Held Together Like Daisy Chains
pluck me like a ripened fruit from the garden that the sun shone on early in the morning and you would sigh in relief at the harvest because i was good to you see me as fondly as the first buds of spring unleashing their insides to the world how your tongue savors its fruit like a parched desert flower...

Premium Member Held Back
A tongue sheathed wields weight heavier than any swung sword. I learned to tuck my knives behind my teeth, to swallow silence—make it my armor, until my own words tasted bitter, cold as iron. There was a time I wanted to tell you how I could break— but truth isn't a gift, it's a weapon in the wrong hands. I remember that night at the...

Held Together, Falling Apart
I am filled with rage and frustration. I’m doing my best, pushing forward with everything I have, yet I feel forced to halt my own progress. In a tempestuous fury, I question you. I lead, I strive, and every step feels like a battle with you. You have it easy, assuming I’ll shoulder everything while you...

Premium Member Perhaps among all the barricades I could have held
Perhaps among all the barricades I could have held, I was born to be read once and never to be opened again. To be glanced at in passing, but never the one who turns heads. To be a writer and never the one written about. To immortalize the beauty I find in others, But only to fall under the shadows...

held hostage
Heartfelt honesty is what I need from you Feeling held hostage in my own home too It’s untrue what you say — I’m so-called genuine Thanks for your kindness today, but where have you been? I exist for a purpose… I still feel hopeless… I’m making little progress I feel rather helpless… Held hostage at home all the time All the time, all...

To the One I Have Held Soo Dear
In the quiet of the evening light, Where shadows stretch and day turns night, I whisper softly, through my tears, To the friend I've held so dear. You were my rock, my guiding star, Together we have come so far. Laughter shared and secrets kept, In memories where we have...
