The Wounds That Make Us
By dominique mcphearson in General Literary | Reads: 392 | Likes: 1
Rummaging through a dead man's things is, perhaps, the strangest thing I've ever done. I sit on the floor in his room. A setting, orange sun filtering through the window illuminates my surroundings. I breathe in pungent cologne that still clings onto the curtains. The carpet remains sunk, coincidin  Read More...

Healing corner

I was standing on the curb, Drenched, looking across the corner, And suddenly I hear a voice in between the drums the rain was playing in my ears. "Excuse me, hey can you tell me which way to the healing corner?" I look back, and see a girl with long straight black hairs tied in a pony. She had Smal  Read More...

Not that I don’t understand tough words, feelings please me. The depths of which I do get, although there’s not much left to praise. I’ve been overshadowed and hunted, by Shakespeare’s words and poets - Like how a tigress defeats a deer; I’m weak, and my words aren&rsqu  Read More...

How I wish for that ray of golden light, which will beamingly fall upon us, to remove our plight. How I wish for that inch of hope, which will sway our mind for not, losing its grip like the last leaf.

Not Okay
By Edha Singh in Poetry | Reads: 389 | Likes: 1
Dear Stranger,   I don't know who told you it's okay, But it's not.   It's the constant fatigue that plagues your mind, With the blurry lines you don't feel the need to clarify. It's the darkness that sweeps in waves- over and over, Till you can't tell the difference and it doesn't matter   Read More...
