Lost Wanderer by Alotta

This poem touched my heart because it was written by the victim of a rapist and I know how she feels I know the pain that she will live with all her life. Rapists and abusers are the dregs of society and no one can truly understand the pain that they cause unless they have [...]

Fifteen Crosses by Lisa Teller

I had a dream I was kneeling, at fifteen crosses on the hill Not a whisper from the trees, everything was still, I felt a sadness in my heart, an empty kind of pain, Fifteen souls had gone away, only memories remained. I tried to cry out to ease my grief, Lifted my hands to [...]

Hope by Brian Quinn

When all about you is black with gloom, And all you feel is pending doom. When your bones are racked with grim despair, When every breath is a gasp for air. Keep on going, though you need to grope, For around the bend is a ray of hope. ************ A ray of hope is perhaps [...]

The Hardest Thing I Ever Did

The hardest thing I ever did Was tell you we were through, But given the circumstance What else could I do? We talked for hours of trivial things Well into the night, And as we talked it came to me I had to give up the fight. I took a breath and closed my eyes [...]

Love Makes The World Go Round by Yvonne Horton

My love is with you as you sleep I’ll float into your head I’ll keep a tender watch over you I’ll be sitting on your bed, As you stir I’ll fade away You won’t know that I was near To keep you safe throughout the night And take away your fear. My Love for you [...]

On Being Asked For A War Poem by W.B Yeats

I think it better that in times like these A poet’s mouth be silent, for in truth We have no gift to set a statesman right; He has had enough of meddling who can please A young girl in the adolescence of her youth, Or an old man upon a winter’s night. ******************* Love Makes [...]
