Carpe Diem
1 day, 24 hours, 1,440 minutes, and 86,400 seconds
Time filled with choices to make
Tick, tock time never stops
Not for you, not for me, not for anyoneAnxiety takes over my body, making me frightened of everything
Freeze activated full swing
Yet my mind still runs at a very high pace
Tick tock, time never stops
Not for you, not for me, not for anyoneI face the reality, I can’t make my future if I’m stuck in my past
If I do, my future me will never truly last
I stop, I breathe, I face, and I fightFixation never fixed any situation
Yet goals must be made to move onward and upward
In this moment is where I choose to be
To focus on my choices to make me a better version of meOpportunities pop up on the move
Hence why worrying is disapproved
Tick tock I stopped paying attention to the clock
Happier me and opportunities are finally unblockedVoting is closed

I love the repetition of the clock motif and the onomatopoeia

Jess, De-Stress
Jess, dry your eyes. Don’t let the haters dim your light. The negative things they say about you are a myth. Realize now that you are worthy just because you exist. That chick who sees you in the hall, who laughs and glares, she like many others cannot handle that you’re rare. Don’t let them get to you. Stop believing that you need to morph into someone else. They’re no authority on who you should be. They don’t know or love themselves. You’ve always been a fighter since before you were born. Abused in the womb, three months early you debuted, nurses held you and were forlorn. You’ll learn to light that spark in you and turn it into a flame. Your story will bring others hope, the battle won’t be in vain. Hang in there. It may feel at times like your darkest hour. If only you knew, the struggle is real; AND, so is your power.

Water
Because there is no effort that will un-harm you
an open heart does not disarm you
there are only lessons, and those are love too
there is only love, what you are left with, is you
we are waiting for nothing, and the fears we cannot fight
only face, stop running. Be still from your flight.
just sit down and stretch
be the ripple that is self
you have always been water
you have will always be wealthVoting is closed

I love how you teach us that the only way to face fear is head-on rather than running away. To receive the world with an open requires so much bravery. Your poetry creates “ripple” effects! Thank you for sharing with the community <3 Juvi

oh my god
Oh, my friend, what is it that you see?
I am to whom you’ve longed,
Are you not you proud of me?
I am who the one you’ve wronged,Where you see darkness, oh, I see well,
Where you see stress, oh, a story to tell,
Can’t you see, oh how I love you?
Only for you, oh I’ve manifested true,Your wishes mine to grant,
Your sorries mine to subside,
Your life mine to take,
Your desires mine to abide,All yours to hold,
All yours to covet,
Your life you live,
It’s time you love it.Voting is closed

When the world does not treat us the way we want, it is up to us to be kind to ourselves. I love how your poem reminds us that the quality of our life is ours to determine, so why not love it? Thank you for sharing with the community. <3 Juvi

This poem takes me back to a very carefree time during my teenage years! Thank you for reminding us that although life will never feel as care-free as they were back then due to hardships and loss, at least we can treasure the memories and photos of those rose-colored times and the people we shared them with <3 Juvi

Free Soul
Worry.
A tradition of the mind
that was not made for the soul.
A symptom of the lost
who forgot to come home.A place where the mind runs free,
basking in the joy and abundance
Of the world around.
My little darling,
You do not have to be found.
For you are right where you need to be
in every moment
of every day
exactly where you are
letting your soul run free.So do not worry.
For you will lose yourself
Running around each day
thinking how could this be?
When all along
All you had to do
Was put trust in your hand
and let life take the lead.Voting is closed

The first five stanzas could be its own poem!
“Worry.
A tradition of the mind
that was not made for the soul.
A symptom of the lost
who forgot to come home.”so impactful. I love the message that worry keeps us stuck in our minds and causes us anxiety but our soul knows that worry is futile because everything happens for a reason and it all…read more
