    Amongst the Stars

    I have a feeling of uncertainty   the words she speaks are my kept memories   but to her the feeling’s not mutual my words become faded as she looks exhausted when I try harder I just can’t seem...

    • deep feelings here dearest Nick powerful write ❤️

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. Another great write my friend. Appreciate you.

    • Honestly, I can relate. But I learned…much to my surprise…nothing is impossible or unattainable. Unless we never reach…

      • Well some things aren’t right for the situations we are in. This is a older poem of mine, but I think looking back life can be a crossroad. You pick a path but there are things you leave behind. Some of those things are pieces of yourself. You have to make the decision if it’s worth giving those things up. But I guess that’s just life all around.

        Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.

    • I don’t like suits, and no comment on the perverted part haha. I wrote this some years ago but I think it captured the moment well.

      Thanks for the read, friend.

    • This is a beautiful write, in a sad way. But beautiful nonetheless. So much about love comes with such tragedy, and most of the time it’s self inflicted when we don’t deem ourselves worthy of something or in this case someone. Idk if I translated that correctly but this was deep. Thanks for sharing. xx

      • Love is complicated and so are people and situations. Glad you liked my poem. Thank for the read. Much appreciated.

    ~*Breathe*~

    are you feeling lost? like the world has turned its back? seems there’s nowhere to run but if you look into your heart open it to those that care maybe they can bring you home and if they can’t just know there's others like you we can all journey together found lies in the...

    • I’ve traveled down south a few times haha. I think we all need a little hope to get us through. And true beauty is how you treat yourself and others.

      Thanks for the read, friend.

    I Got No Body

    I got no body oh no no hands, no fingers, or toes I'm broken up and will be for forever (forever) lost in limbo I feel quite transparent everyone sees right through me might as well be part of the air because I got no body no body to meet...

    • Really strong poetic rant which effectively points out that there continues to be a double standard when it comes to sexual deviance. I just finished a book called “Tampa” by Alissa Nutting which totally kills this topic in reference to predators. You should take a look at it.

      • Sounds like an interesting book. I’ll keep it in mind. There is a double standard for sure, but in some ways I don’t want to come off as victim blaming either. So many people all around get preyed on and the laws here are a joke at best. I mostly wrote this after seeing how many false accusations were floating around, and mostly it was one sided with no hearing out the male side.

        Thanks for the read, much appreciated.

    • To apologize for a body part caught my attention, then I read this and understood where you were coming from. Interesting.

      • Yeah, I think sometimes it is like having to be sorry for being a man. Being attracted but having to watch your words, your eyes, your step. That makes it sound like women don’t go through similar issues, well really worse ones, but the poem is more pointing that out I suppose.

        Thanks for the read, friend.

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. I partially blame the media, well the propaganda that’s force fed to us to consume daily. Putting their narratives in our heads. Magnificent write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Yeah, I do think most of the narrative is public shaming rather than hearing arguments before judgment. I personally think we owe it to real victims to look at it as a case by case basis. But unfortunately society likes the easy way and the easy way is to shun.

        Thanks for the read, friend.

    • I appreciate reading the confessional poems out there, as a man given a penis by God, I can heavy relate. It’s not easy being a man and I’m sure harder to be a woman.

      • Yeah, I think unfortunately a lot of good men get thrown aside or accused because of toxic men and manipulating women. But as you said, many women deal with a whole lot of bull crap.

        Thanks for the read, friend.

    • In different ways, but for sure. I also get that there are a lot of toxic men that do put a lot of women on edge.

      Thanks for the read, friend.

    • Hey there, friend. I didn’t mind the me too movement I just felt it moved away from helping victims and became villainizing men. Also was kinda a trend where everyone was a victim regardless of the situation. I mean I think of the Taylor Swift incident where a groping was being seen as just bad as rape. It’s bad but not the same.

      Thanks for the read. I very much appreciate it.
