It is impressive how you end the sentence with a rhyme and it flows so smoothly. then ending it with “The bastards have to throw you to the wolves”
I enjoyed this

Powerfully penned, Brandon. Another excellent write that flows effortlessly my friend. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

It’s like you’re damned if you do – damned if you don’t.
It’s got lots of energy plus wolves too!
Enjoyed the read!

I needed to read this today willow. This hit the right spot.

Awesome, and very relatable.
Actually, I was telling Del earlier that I want to work on something called “Book Of Scars”. Looks like you beat me to it! Maybe I will, still. But I don’t know if I can not be influenced by your write here. That’s okay!
I had some “issues” when I was a kid. But, as I got older, I realized that I would indeed outlive the demons. And I have. I am extremely mentally tough, for whatever reasons. Yet I do have a part of me that still feels the good out there. Perhaps that is why I enjoy your writes as much as I do. It’s real and easy to relate to.

Powerfully penned, Willow. Another excellent write with lots of layers, but also wisdom and guidance my friend. Using one’s voice to heal instead of lashing out.. Hit me like a bag of sledgehammers with this one. The letter format was a cool choice that fit the vibe and your musical accompaniment is precise. Below is the part that struck a chord inside me. Amazing read/listen as always. Thanks for sharing your story.. Appreciate you, Sis.

“your voice is your strongest weapon

I know the urge will be to finally lash out

don’t

use it to heal…

to share how you feel…

you’re not alone

trust me…

I know

with all my love…

me”

I love this! Writing letters to ourselves is the most authentic poetry in my opinion.
Sometimes we write to find others who can relate but sometimes it’s meant for ourselves – to find our own sense of inner peace, self worth, all of it.
Again, I love this.
Keep on keeping on chica:)

This is so good. I mean,,,I love the flow of it

Beautifully penned, Mark. Another excellent write with clever wordplay and outstanding storytelling my friend. I concur with Fia, it has a rhythm and a flow to it. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

Talk about manifesting…this is a solid BOOM in the way of rhythm, movement, and expression. And here y’all are now…still living that hoped for day. 😊

I was smiling so much reading this that my heart ached!
You are everything I hoped you’d be plus more.
I also remember this picture! You used it on DUP too!

How blessed I feel at this moment, so many years later.
Remembering all the darkest of nights
and the glow of every early morning
Together bound in a discovery of words
Describing how you completely loved me:)

Love you!!

A great love poem Styx. You master words like no one else. 🙂

Thank you Tim. I don’t mess with rhyming ones much anymore. But when I do, I want them to be as good as I can make them. I appreciate it when someone lets me know that the efforts are worth it.

Powerfully penned, Thomas. Another excellent write with outstanding storytelling my friend. Clever wordplay throughout this one. I can relate. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

This right here is a perfect expression of boundaries. Taking on the chaos of others can be exhausting. Hell, dealing with our own chaos is exhausting.
