Poetry ~ "Arrival of Death" / Gurpreet Kaur


It comes on its tip toes, 

Making some unrecognisable 

uneasiness in the surroundings. 

Cause of aftermath is 

just an illusion.

Ultimate goal is in full motion. 

Within a blink, passiveness 

spreads, silencing everything.. 


About the Poem 

The poem is based on the unexpected arrival of death. The whole scene happens in a spontaneous movement.

Memories of Freedom

Across the winter sky it became from blue to gray, As the snowflakes has fallen down you beg to stay, The air feels cold against your skin when you pray, A sense of peace when you close your eyes and wander astray. At least tell me if I can be like a cloud, To create art in the sky and away from the crowd, Not that I am screaming out loud. We dream about flying and waited so long to find our wings, Each star in space is like a dream in a diamond ring, I am not looking for a king, At least I want to sing. When you open your eyes do they gleam or sparkle? Dancing above the ocean waves spinning around in a circle, Do you ask yourself if you ever wanted to be mortal? What are the problems of being a human when they don’t have their own wings? Do they bring? Or do they cling? No one knows how hard it is to be a simple angel on earth, Even when we give it our worth, There is something deeper than the soul to find how much it is known to be a hearth. Every human goes dark, To lose that spark....

Poetry ~ "Moonflower" / Chelsea Stawicki

Gentle enough so nightly, One star from above forms something so brightly, As the storm rolls with a single tear so gently. That cold tear doesn't just fade away, As it turns from blue to gray, Just tell me you will stay. Help me bloom to become like you, Something beautiful, something new... I won't just be one thing to be true. I will show you something different, Something magnificent! When you cry I awaken to bring you more, After all, you are adored. I will shine and glow, So I become white like the snow, During the night I will grow, Just like time and space from long ago. I am your reflection, I am beside you giving you affection, No matter where you are I give you my protection. We are beautiful, Pure and peaceful, Soul and wonderful. Goodnight my friend, I am here until the end, As we ascend, Hand by hand, Together. By Chelsea Stawicki

Discover Your Own

 Everyone has flaws, Not the claws, It's okay to withdraw. Find a way to accept yourself, No matter when it feels like an embarrassment, Take the book from the shelf, It's okay to experiment. Everyone kept on trying, Even when we are crying? Dying. To fly again. Between you and me? Nothing else I'd rather be... Learning is hard, Draw the card, Find a shard, Remember to guard, What has been scarred. What's a flaw when being perfect is not always the answer? Because no one knows... Don't view yourself to close a gate just to hate, You learn about your own fate.
