Cycles of Days and Nights

By: Melanie Koopmans


Retreating light fades

The sun descends from its place

The world has gone dark

/

The sky glows again

As the moon takes residence

The cycle repeats

So Much Relies on

By: Maddie Morton


So much relies on

The decisions that I make

Once I leave this place

/

The decisions made

Weigh me down like a boulder

Are they good enough?

Why is There a Man

Why is there a man

Standing outside my window

Dressed as a clown?

Stomach

Butterfly filled air

When you’re near I come aware

My nerves all aflare

Rain

In the misty rain

A frog stared into the sky

Waiting for the sun

Stars

The sun goes to sleep

Stars cover the cold night sky

Shining their bright light

Rippled Reflection

Black sheep of the herd

Who seem like wolves to the rest

Also graze on the grass

Mysterious Death

Mysterious death

Absorbed into the midnight

Transformed into stars

Sound

You are Sound Itself

Shattering my Sweet Silence

And Joining the Air

The Cycle

No Glory in War

and no Freedom when at Peace

The Cycle Repeats

Nighttime Tango

When the sunshine drops

The moonlight comes out to rest

And then the stars dance

Air

A deep dark nothing

Numbness that is consuming

For I cannot breathe

The Souls of Dead Kids

The souls of dead kids

Killed by a purple killer

Wanting their revenge

The Man in Purple

By: Brandon Rivette


The man in purple

Crushed by the suits springlocks

Destined to bleed out

Echos Seem to Fade Into

By: Miranda Mullarkey


Echos seem to fade into

The walls that seem to cave about

The echos get louder

Masked Feelings

By: Samantha Leckie


A natural mask

As if I were the background

Simply blending in

Untitled

The ceiling collapsed

Gave way to the destruction

Screaming all silenced

Nature Trail


By Lydia Morris


A sad wistful girl

Full of emotions and fire

Makes a volcano
