Poetry ~ "Toy - A plaything" / Gurpreet Kaur


Yeah!  

You've played with me 

All the way.

You cared me alot

At the beginning. 

When I was all new.

Yeah! 

I've broken several times,

By your hands

And by the hands 

that are unknown to me.

I let it happen. 

I let it go.


Yeah! 

You mended me, of course, 

But the time worn me old,

There are patches and holes in me,

One big blow,

I'll be in pieces.

One big blow, 

 I'll shatter completely.

                                      

After all, 

I'm like a puppet.

I'm a toy,

A plaything.

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.

Poetry ~ "Love is a Discovery" / Chelsea Stawicki

Sometimes I wish you were here, Waiting for that gentle touch my dear. I walk alone these misty roads to find what I had lost, Is my own body a prison as I am being covered in frost? The falling snow can bring a sense of hope like tiny stars, Falling from the sky I open my hands up to make me think if this is ours? I begin to think why I felt so hollow? Not only because of my sorrow. Am I just waiting for tomorrow? Maybe one day you and I can follow. Image credit : Unsplash At least I give you a smile, Even if you think it is worthwhile. You may not be here anymore, With your wings until you soar. A heart can be black like night, But a soul can guide you to the light. I always wanted to give you something special, To make it official. Whenever I think of you, I don’t just think it is something new, Because I know it is true, Each star is like you. A star in the sky, Those beautiful wings when you fly, Don’t be so shy, There’s nothing wrong with saying goodbye. Someday… I will fly with ...
