My Dear Poet Mar 14
I am
alright

…tonight

like I was
okay

…today

as for
tomorrow

…who knows
the sorrow



but hey
Jon Edwards Nov 2020
The days are harder
When it’s bright outside
And the time has changed
You fake a smile
But you’re feeling the same

The days are harder
When you know you haven’t slept
And you open your eyes
Same eyes that have wept
Done with compromise

The days are harder
When you realize that it’s real
That pain means you can’t imagine the past,
Live a make-believe all at the same time and heal
But you tell yourself: “Today is gonna be the last”

And you wish it gets better
Or whatever comes before second best
Because if the days are harder
Then the nights must be the hardest
Harry Kelly Jul 2018
I saw a seagull today with a broken wing.
He was walking down Bleecker Street.
I never saw a bird move so fast on his feet.
He was really haulin’ ***.
I smiled to myself.
And I swear he looked right at me and smiled back.
It made me realize
Sometimes, you just have to make the best
out of what you’ve got.
Maria E Jun 2014
Deep sorrow and agony fell
Emptiness and unfeeling grows
A good thing or not it tells
People stare but no one truly knows

More and more they came
Less and less of you comes along
A good thing or not it tells
You still hope and hope and hope and long
In light of what was happened

— The End —
