It’s somewhere

By JJ Moonchild It's somewhere between half-past missing you, and it all never having happened. It's somewhere in the middle of a panic attack, and the fetal position in your favorite sweatshirt.

Angel

By Ms. Inspiration She never asks for anything in return, And never complains when life is unfair. After all, she is an angel divine in her own way. She smiles and is never filled with sorrow, The hurt inside her stays hidden besides, Angels never show defeat. How beautiful she is, not outer beauty. There … Continue reading Angel

For Peers in Arrears and Time Served is Best

By Frank De Canio For Peers in Arrears I only hope they entertain as many scofflaws who’ll enjoy the breakage of the water main bequeathed them while in their employ.

Self-worth and Other Poems

By Driq Wright Self-worth why would you force yourself into a relationship? Why are you staying and you hurting? Why would you be there for somebody that can't do the same for you?

Kintsugi

By Melissa Wabnitz Pumayugra You are wonderfully broken, little pieces held together with thin gold lines, soldering the pain in the places that my words could not reach. I held fast to what we used to be, memories glued with tears, but I could not fix the edges of your hidden darkness. I hope that … Continue reading Kintsugi
