Write a poem or letter about one way you feel misunderstood 2 months, 4 weeks ago
Hard Face, Soft Face
I don’t hate you; that’s just my hard face.
That face, smudged with abysmal thoughts, tangled feelings and fear; louder than any words I could come conjure up.
My hard face, such a menace, etched deeply with lines of age, pain, worry, trauma.
Here babe, let me show you my soft face.
The one which is vibrant with love, kindness, empathy and forgiveness.
I promise I love you, I’m happy, I’m at peace. I’ll put on my soft face for you, you’ll feel more at ease, without burden or wonder if I want to stay or leave.
That hard face, it doesn’t always tell the truth. I’ll stow that face away, because I love you.Voting is open!

Amy, having a “hard” face may mean that you’ve experienced heartache or trauma, but it also means that you have a depth to your soul that reaches further than most people. While your “soft” face may be more palatable to some, your hard face shows your strength and determination. Thank you for sharing your experience!
