A POEM BY MY SISTER <3:
dew drips from a leaf
a leaf that a little caterpillar walks on
it will soon be transformed
into a majestic pollinator
its climbs to a branch on a small tree
there, it starts making a cocoon
somehow it knows just what to do
it settles in wrapping itself up
it stays in there for weeks
then one day
it emerges
little does the creature know
that he's now changed into
something very different
Posted in response to the challenge Grown.
falling sky, slowly, piece by piece
I've forgotten how to move, to breathe
all the truth I've ever known begins to cease
as I watch my world fall apart
time is ticking, while holding still
When you’re gone I’ll think of every missed call
I’ll summon your sunny warmth and laughter
Without you, who will catch me if I fall?
Your stars always kept night lit long after
HEADLINES
Big words jumping out at you from creased paper, casually thrown on the counter, demanding attention
Meaningless opinions coated in fallacies
