Broken | William Swales

ALONE BY FAULT
AN OPEN WOUND
UNHEALED DIRTY
FILLED WITH SALT

JUST WAITING WANTING
FORSAKEN ALONE
WANDERING SEARCHING
A PLACE, HOME

COLD, SCARED
SCARRED
BUT YEARNING
HEART WAITING, BARRED

ADDICTED I THINK
MISSING THE PAIN
MY HEART MY SLEEVE
THE BLOOD THE STAIN

A BARREN SHELL
COVERED IN SKIN
SELECTIVE PICKY
WHO I LET IN

BUT I MISS YOU
PAIN HEARTBREAK
YOU MUST BE SPECIAL
FOR MY FUTURE ACHE

Stories | Miguel Soto

The stories are told in such a fine grit
the echoes of eternity were infinitely lit,
at certain paths there is a crossroad
you look for a crown to which I will righteously bestow.

The clutches of tomorrow were never in dismay
you write your riches to which no one ever flinches,
please say to sorry that I was never there
let us hope that there will be a share.

Go on, go on, go on, go far far on
snaring away at the pumps of your heart,
is all you will ever need to start.

Please don’t go, don’t give me a precise no
every sound of the air way can give a chance to go,
too little, too far on our journey to an intergalactic bar
a million men marched up Jupiter’s spiral low.

Take it, take it, take all the eternity of time
making up a conscience will give us a world to deny
from start to finish there will be no minds left to vanish.

The once and for all have grown too far gone
many can rid us from this infinite church,
I stand here in the middle as a road’s pawn
The earth will open up for us to emerge.

Inclusion | Eliza Segiet

From the orchestra of sensations
only moments are stopped in time.
They remain,
they last like an inclusion hidden in amber.
The past veiled by the memory
of stone nature.

My mind are the corals of the past,
monads of memories
immersed in a whirl of madness.
The corals of the future crystallize
into indeterminacy.
Fortune will materialize tomorrow.

Beautiful Ghosts | Fotoula Reynolds - Contemporary Poetry Website Featuring Notable Poems

Beautiful Ghosts | Fotoula Reynolds

A river of memories
Flow into my life
Dancing like dragonflies
Chasing each other

Grey photographs inside
The album of my mind
Fingertips turn pages
On skin is last decade’s dust

Armchair dreams make me smile
Love journeys with heart and hands
Unaccountable footprints
Reach the ancient elm tree

Two bodies ignite the dawn
Dew drops fall from leaf to leaf
And the distance in their eyes is
A homecoming they can’t deny

Beautiful ghosts lay lost
Between walls of heavy sighs
Reminiscing in corridors
Nobody gets away unhurt
