Write A Letter To A Place That Changed You 1 months agoMY CHALLENGING PLACE
Lexi MaeDown… far away from the sight,
an enchanted forest escapes.
Do not ponder on the unite,
each comes in a multitude of shapes.
They take your hand
to show you the world.
Only to take away your land,
but you’ll be stuck in their magic, which is swirled.
Not your cup of tea?
You know you’re paying for their game.
DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT YOU SEE!
Unless you do… such a shame.
How can you move forward,
if you never listen to your word?Voting starts July 26, 2025 12:00am

Lexi MaeAdmiration within the smile
as you allow it to grow.
All the way from the mile
getting the light to show.
Bouncing around
due to past endeavors.
Finally finding you in the sound
now that I have passed each of the levers.
Chills head their way down
along with the fears.
Never a need to frown
only taking a few years.
You’re brighter than you would believe
just wait to see what you will achieve.Voting is closed

Lexi, it is important that we all take a step back and see how far we have come, especially on the bad days. We are far removed from who we were as children, but we can still appreciate the beauty of finding ourselves as adults. Thank you for sharing your story!

Write a letter or poem to or about a loved one who passed away and share how they inspire you 12 months agoGrandpa…
Lexi MaePulling the soul back
to the day that seems forever ago.
Slowly here still wishing for the comeback
those chances set low.
Reminding who you once were
now that my name no longer exists.
For him it’s nothing but a blur
reading the remainder of life from lists.
Telling you all that has been achieved
despite knowing I’ll say it often.
Still pursuing the grieved
hoping maybe it’ll soften.
You still being here
the birds starting to explain the time is near.Voting is closed

Lexi, grandpas are such an important part of growing up as a little girl. They possess the kind of wisdom that we can learn so much from. I am sure that your grandpa would be proud of all that you have achieved and the love and memories that you still cherish from him. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem.

Lexi Mae Edwards shared a letter in the
Poetry group 1 years, 1 months agoSparkle
Lexi MaeThere’s a sparkle that lights
when I look your way.
Catching me off guard
with how the work goes into play.
Sometimes I feel like I’m dreaming
when we’re with one another.
Something I’ve seen in the movies
but this time it’s with each other.
You light up my life
like a spark that I never knew I needed.
My mind ponders—
you’re the one who thought
I often drift too.
We’re still so young
so much ahead—
picturing these moments with you
is like a story
one I’m glad I can just apprehend.
Continuing to blossom
like the rose buds
in the early spring.
Due to the water
making sense why it rains so much
when we’re with one another.
God is just trying to shed light
among our sparkle,
allowing our blossom
into the upcoming.
Never thought it was possible
yet still grateful for the moments
the ones that are in the upcoming.
You being a space of security
a place I never thought I needed.
Showing me what it’s like
for one to care for another.
Making my heart
want to continue to spread.
Allowing you more
as we discover
who one another is.
The life we set
does not sound alarm.
Allowing my vulnerable self
to show through
making me smile
on the inside as well as out.
Creating peace
throughout our world.
The one where—
no worry—
letting me know
it’s okay.
Giving me reassurance
making me realize that
you really are going to stay.
Not that I didn’t think you wouldn’t;
you’re just there for my overthinking mind.
We will continue to grow
within our world—
one that is immaculate.
No matter what is thrown in our way—
we’ll figure it out
as we have each other.
Creating a space
to which no harm—
will come our way.-
Greetings, your poem beautifully captures the magic of love and the feeling of security it brings. The imagery and emotions you convey are both heartfelt and relatable, making us feel the depth of your connection. The way you describe growth and mutual support is touching and inspiring.

Lexi MaeLook at the obstacles you’ve surpassed
not once thinking this is where you’d be.
Despite all of the overcast
now kicking your feet with glee.
Getting past it all
anything tossed your way.
Funny that you were thinking you would fall
now the pressure is no longer a weigh.
I know that you see it
you opened that door.
Never giving in to quit
leaving your heart to wanting more.
We still have so much to learn
you can rest since it is no longer your turn.Voting is closed

Write A poem About Where And When You Feel Most At Peace 1 years, 1 months agoThe Space
Lexi MaeThe impact of my Romeo’s embrace
can send ease throughout the mind—
compiling a space of security.
Shockwaves sent within
outside leaves only a grin—
the impact of my Romeo’s embrace.
Allowing the spirit to roam free
across the buds that have been planted—
compiling a space of security.
Growing in the races
tangling up the two souls—
the impact of my Romeo’s embrace.
Following the direction the fingers intertwine
as we head towards the meadows—
compiling a space of security.
A path sent from the rain
only he knows the pain we with-stained:
the impact of my Romeo’s embrace—
compiling a space of security.Voting is closed

Lexi Mae Edwards shared a letter in the
Women's Empowerment group 1 years, 2 months agoWith me
Lexi MaeI am the girl that can come off a bit clingy
Often scaring those who cross my path.
My thoughts may seem a bit stringy
Coming off to one like a bloodbath.
I will shoot for the stars
Providing those I love with my support.
Depending who looks you can see the scars
This makes some want to abort.
Giving my all with folks that let her through
As they becoming a part of the life.
There are pieces only few knew
I will occasionally show it all within a rife.
No one can tell me who I am
I do not follow a diagram.-
I absolutely relate to being the “clingy” friend. I wish I had your wisdom when I was your age. I loved it hearing for the first time tonight and I love it again reading and processing it in my own time.

Magical Moments group 1 years, 2 months agoThe Knight
Lexi MaeThe knight elevates the princess
tightening his grasp midair
while they are lost in the brown waves.
Shifting the thread of hair behind
to gain a surpass of what the wave has inside—
the knight elevates the princess.
Giddying as the knight’s veins come through
the heat in the room leaves them breathless:
while they are lost in the brown waves.
The beats sync
taking the space away
the knight elevates the princess.
The grin grows uncontrollably
the palms leaving a trace:
while they are lost in the brown waves.
Continuing to go steady
as they snuggle close.
The knight elevates the princess
while they are lost in the brown waves. -

To my younger self group 1 years, 2 months agoHer
Lexi MaeHave I ever told you how proud I am?
Of each of the battles you have overcome
She thinks that her life is not up to par.
She’s a writer now
While her sport history is no more
Have I ever told you how proud I am?
Living with the mind battles
Due from the moments God throws her way:
She thinks that her life is not up to par.
Still waking up
Pushing past the hardships
have I ever told you how proud I am?
Have you seen how far you have grown
moments you thought would never surpass
She thinks that her life is not up to par.
If she only knew how great she’s doing
Which I think we’re finally within the place
Have I ever told you how proud I am?
She thinks that her life is not up to par. -
Lexi Mae Edwards shared a letter in the
Poetry group 1 years, 2 months agoThe Self Journey
Lexi MaeFollowing down a path
that was out of the ordinary.
Discovering herself threw all the wrath
Bouncing around such as a fairy.
The harmfulness inside
can consume her on the daily
She is no longer trying to hide
Realizing she probably was never gaily.
The spark of who she is becoming
Is bright within
Hearing the constant humming
Without all of the sin.
This girl is giving it her all
never worried on if she will fall.-
“The spark of who she is becoming
Is bright within”I love this line. I have felt this line. I can’t wait to see you continue on your path and reveal your purpose! <3 Lauren

Lexi Mae Edwards shared a letter in the
Health, Wellness and Chronic Conditions group 1 years, 2 months agoWho Am I?
Lexi MaeI want to try this again
The more I learn about who I am becoming
Making this a part of my routine
As I continue going day by day
To figure out the best version of myself
So let’s begin
Who am I?
I carry a big heart
One that can often be misused from those that surround me.
I do not put that shield on it.
I trust with the plan God already has made for me—
I am just living that piece of it.
I have goals
Ambitions
Dreams
All which one day I will succeed.
I am still so young
There’s a whole life ahead.
Yes I will get things wrong
It may not look like I know what I am doing
That is okay though
It is just going to build me.
I trust myself
I see my beauty within
Even if it’s not on a day to day.
I know who I can and want to be
So for right now I am just loving me.
I am grateful for the life that I carry
And who I am becoming.
Each day this is making me who I am
And I cannot be more proud of that. -
Lexi Mae Edwards shared a letter in the
Poetry group 1 years, 2 months agoThe little girl
Lexi MaeLooking into the mirror
I see the smile from her.
The find feels clearer
I finally found where you were.
Noticing the smile
That follows around.
Anyone could spot it from a mile
Finding what startled her from the ground.
Did I mention the bliss
From you walking through that door.
It’s safe you will not be a dismiss
We are ready to explore.
The possibilities that are within
Not that I no wear you thin. -
Lexi Mae Edwards shared a letter in the
Health, Wellness and Chronic Conditions group 1 years, 2 months agoThey say I’m “hurting”
Lexi MaeI keep being told that I’m too hurt right now;
However, I was for a long time.
In my time with you I lost myself—
to the point where I did not know who I was looking into a mirror.
I started to notice those signs while we were collided.
The fighting—over stuff that should not have been a thing—
All because I’m an “over-thinker” but I think you made me that way.
I could recite a conversation with us from the back of my head—
That’s because we were predictable—
Or what we would do when with one another— all points too—predictable.
I took a step back in our time together to see if it was me losing my mind or if it was caused by you.
I’ll be honest—I was hurt for 6 to 7 months before I called it over.
You had no idea though for parts—even though you should’ve because I was repeating myself time and time again.
Now that I’m free I live for me—
I’m happier now—
I work out—
I write—
I don’t plan shit out—
I don’t have a dress code—even though you said I could always wear whatever I wanted to but that was not the case.
I moved on while being in our shit show.
You were too blind to notice—
The pain I was enduring—
Too busy playing video games—
Leaving me in the shadows during our time.
You taught me some valuable life lessons—
ones that I will take with me.
Thank you for showing what I want in life—
Maybe one day our paths will collide but I’m stating that time from forever is done.
Thank you for the memories and the many things you have taught me throughout my high-school life—then allowing me in college to learn what I could not learn before we broke apart.
I’m appreciative of everything you have taught me throughout our time together—
You will be someone my future children hear about due to the amount of experiences we share.
But overall thank you for showing me what I need to look for in life.
You are no longer the thought that races the back of my head— I am free from you and all the pain you put me through.
I am not hurting—she was a while back—now I am living the life I deserve—I would not do anything to change that.-
Greetings, the reflection on healing and growth after a painful relationship, inspiring resilience and self-worth. It’s raw, showing your journey towards happiness and self-discovery. Overall, it’s empowering and brave.

Poetry group 1 years, 2 months agoReliving 222
Lexi MaeThe spirit takes my soul back
to a day that was not long ago.
Sitting on a rack
as if there’s something that needed a show.
Remembering key phrases
that I would say.
The body raises
to realize it was my favorite day.
Twos flooded the room
as I would turn to you.
Watching our love start to bloom
then it was my cue.
Waking to the realization
there’s no need for any hesitation.-
Greetings, your style is captivating, blending vivid imagery with nostalgia. It draws me into memories through concise phrases and rhythmic flow, evoking a sense of longing and reflection. Beautifully written.
