A Mother's Love
By AnonymousI loved you
And you loved me
Many nights we stayed awake together
Holding you close
Every time singing
Rhymes of geese and shoes
Every night
It Isn't Me
By Matthew JustisI wake up
Brush my teeth
Then look into the mirror.
I see a kid
Who looks confused
About his true self.
I don’t know who.
But it isn’t me.
It's Difficult
By AnonymousIt’s difficult,
The business of learning a new language.
Words slip away from you like a skittish bird
But you grasp for them
And try to give them some meaning.
ballad to the unknown
By Claire Hutchinsoni screamed into the void until my lungs collapsed,
but she barely gave me a glance when the silence relapsed.
i called out to the stars and they gave me an excuse:
“hey man i’m sorry, it’s me, it’s not you.”
