Thanks, Andy! 😊 Seeing some of the poems others wrote for #sherepoetry prompts in the past, as well as some of the ones Shere Khancept has written on here, kinda got me interested in trying my hand at poetry. Now I feel like it’s been paying off and it was worth the effort. 😊❤️
#sherepoetry
Sometimes I wish
That I could share my love, my
Open mind with the
Whole world, and not feel
Like I am wasting my time,
Fading into sand
I offer
my heart,
my words,
my loyalty,
my devotion
to music
and beauty-
I offer
my world
to the world
#sherepoetry #poetry
Daily offerings,
I give all of myself, it
Strips me down, consumes.

Cw: passive suicidal thoughts
It’s been almost 2 years since the last time
I had thoughts of
Not caring if I was hit by a car…
And I almost was.
Today, I’m thankful for Midnight for
Saving me from myself.
And for reminding me there’s always time to appreciate the flowers.
thankful,
blessed,
with
wonderful
loving,
talented,
beautiful,
funny
friends
that
never give up
on me.

74.
Energy and Matter are equivalent to each other.
Brahman is Artman, Artman is Brahman.
In the birth cry, in the corpse, in the blood, in the soil.
There are atoms everywhere.
Our judgement regarding the front and the back just belongs to our own custom.
Is Dragon's blood Red?

Cw: sparring w/ person who SA’d me
My one regret of learning Tae Kwon Do
Is that I never won sparring against you
You were always bigger &stronger than me
&you the asshole, always grappled legs or feet
It’s not fucking Krav Maga
You’re not an MMA fighter
It’s not a slap fight

Poem: Matinee by Andrea Cohen
#shereart #sherepoetry #sherecreativity
love is a play
with no third act
the curtain falls
like your dress
at midnight
Poem : ThePoetryFoundation.org
Just when I think,
I’m abnormal,
individual,
I catch a glimpse
of you,
or you,
and see me,
on some other day.

One thousand years, ten thousand years...
I'd wait however many years it takes for you to return to me
Even if by then I am bitter and scorned by life itself...
I will always wait for you, my love.

i feel him stretch before my eyes open, in that way that looks like it would fix my spine, if only I could too. My eyes open, and he's already observing me, tipped by the change in my breath that i am awake. someone else fed him; he is content. he twitches his whiskers, turns his golden eyes back to the window, and so do I - we watch the world pass, safe in a timeless summer morning, sharing a moment where only we understand what's hidden behind one-way glass.

The poem I took inspiration from (re: challenge):
www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazi...
(IT'S SO GOOD!)
I'm not sure how it sparked what I wrote about, but perhaps that's part of the beauty of it!
Black rain storm, lashes
Cobalt stone, generations
Soaking in the soil.

Sometimes comfort is an egg &cheese sandwich,
Blanketed by an everything bagel or a croissant 🥐
Sometimes comfort is a blanket
Sunflowers splashed all over grey-white fleecy fabric
Tied on all sides forever with a gentle green holding up the other side
Many times, its my person
1/
First touch, internal
Flame, heart pounding, flushed faces,
Sweat merging, heat surge.

@sherekhancept.writes.fyi
my veins pulse,
heat rushing
faster
as your eyes
rake across my flesh.
do you feel it too?
you must.
this fire
is stoked only
with mutual interest,
desire roaring
through our ears,
rushing
faster than my breaths
as they quicken,
gasp,
hold,
body heaving,
need.

Daily #shereprompt:
"Feeling of Heat"
The phrase "beat the heat" is interesting.
Aside from its intended meaning here, "beat" can be a violent word. Violence feels "hot" to me.
What emotional state feels "hot" to you, and how can you creatively represent it?

only you
can tighten the knots
that make me unravel
#sherepoetry #shereart #sherecreativity
People bring me comfort,
solace,
so you say-
codependent-
I smile,
and say,
not afraid to
love
#sherepoetry #poetry
An involutional mind
needs to be unravelled
in order to find clarity
If you can master
involution
you should be
running a high tech company
You should creating
order where chaos is
You should be discovering
unfound planets
#unravel
