Amidst an endless sea of people Stuck in the web of normalized monotony She stuck out like a rebellious seedling Peeking through a crack in the concrete Engulfed in shadows, she grew cheerfully And saw the world - so vast and gray Mesmerised by everyone and everything Wishing she could reach the sky one day Absorbing what she could like a sponge She gave her everything to grow up soon And she understood how things worked Sun came up and then came the moon And this went on, she quickly learnt Just like people walking all over her Will she ever be able to grow enough For that abuse to stop and never reoccur? Will her colours bring joy to the world Or will monotony be an unyielding saboteur? -- Original work Please do not copy or repost without authorization.

"Loving someone comes with all the risks involved.. I no longer want to regret anything that happened in the past I consider it all over without any hates and toxic I don't want the phrase "if only, if only, just try" to haunt me like the regrets I often hear from people I want to live without... read more

A shattered heart, like glass on stone edges sharp, bleed alone. Silent fractures, slow to heal, wounds that time refuses to seal. Echoes linger, soft and low, carving paths no light can show.

Should my flowers fall or wither leave alone my thirsty weeds and perfect storm they weather. Should my flowers fall or wither parched beside a lake of liquor oh, my darling, mercy, please! Should my flowers fall or wither leave alone my thirsty weeds.

In moonlit dreams whispers dance. Stars wear your name, my heart's soft glance. Time wraps around, in twilight's embrace. Each sigh a wish, weaves love's gentle lace.

I feel things a little too heavily, I wish my thoughts were a little more heavenly. This rollercoaster I've been a passenger on, has been nothing but turbulence since day one. I want to feel the earth beneath my feet and stay grounded, however the only responses I ever receive are hounded. I... (edited) read more

Plea In twilight's gentle whispered sigh. The stars like lovers, wink and fly. Moonlight wraps the world in dreams. As shadows dance, or so it seems. Each breeze carries a sweet refrain. A longing heart, to seek, to gain. In silence, hope's soft whispers blend. A simple wish for love to... read more

In my daydream, I smelled a very familiar scent Turns out my guess was correct, there you come with a smile You are the only perfect man I have found without any flaws A man who loves me more than I love myself You came to me, with a million happiness Hugging me tightly, kissing my cheek... read more

The one in the bed next to me never opens the window ; gone for the night ; I listen to the quiet hum of distant cars strum my guitar And peace

When I'm rebuilding,piece by piece, When I'm healing, and my heart's at ease. You sho up, with a presence so bold, But I wonder,what's your purpose to hold.? Are you here to help me mend? Or to hurt me more, and watch me descend.? I'm fragile now,my walls are thin, I'm not sure if I can take the... read more

I walk in slow flashesâ  silver glints in thundercloud thoughts.  You think youâve mapped me?  Cute. My compass bleeds stars, not routes. I speak in half-truths and sideways smiles,  then vanish in echoes youâll never find. My mystery isnât darkness, itâs choreography:  each glance... read more

I wasnât hard to love. Just easy to forget. Like rain that falls at midnight â No one remembers it was wet. I waited in rooms you never came to, Held words that were meant for you. Smiled through the silence like it didnât ache, Like being invisible was something I knew. I watched you love louder... read more

Hey all, Iâve been teaching poetry writing for a long time and have amassed a butt load of writing prompts. If you would like to have the Google doc link to them, let me know! They all use a model poem written by someone good and then isolate a successful element of that poem for your practice.... read more
