A hero to me is not just a person who died for their country
or went inside a burning building or stuff like that.
A hero to me is a single mother who survives every day by herself,
A teenager against all odds getting through life,
I really connected with your poem. It was heart wrenching and it got me thinking about everything in my life and how we live. This is coming from a child born into a single parent home, so...

If I could, I would remove all your fears
If I could, I would remove all your tears
If I could, I would make life painless
If I could, I would give you all your courage

At birth,
she was strong.
It was her
This is very similar to my younger sister. About 2 years ago she was really sick. I look back on pictures of her before she was diagnosed (T1D) and I can't believe I didn't notice something...
A single flash of a camera
And a moment frozen in time
Can never truly tell the tale
Of that child left behind.
They say I've changed, like it's a sin,
That I'm no longer who I've been.
But how can they know what I've bled?
The silent wars inside my head,
Very moving - more like this please. Very best wishes, Ann.
A sunflower will grow
With much beauty to show,
But the wind must blow,
Which brings the rain and the snow.
A match was struck that ignited the flame.
Now ashes and rubble are all that remain.
Defeated, she's left standing alone,
Didn't want a battle,
Yet you declared war,
Each knock you gave me made me stronger than before.
I will not give up,
That’s so true if you stop and consider how our lives unfold or grow. It is a constant battle to fight the wars in order to keep a balanced, steady life. That's why we have God, so we can...
I'm on my way.
They may ask me, "Where to?"
Well, that I cannot say...
For even I have no clue.
Just keep on walking,
A small voice said.
Don't dare look back.
Look straight ahead.
I think everyone can relate at some point in their lifetime. I went through something like this recently where he cheated on me and broke up with me, but he still wanted to hook up and not...
We all have a massive mountain to climb,
Especially those who've lost someone dear.
But climb that big mountain, we surely must,
If we are going to overcome fear.
I send anxiety
a cease and desist letter.
I close her mouth.
Unbind her gnawing disquiet,
A little bit of laughter,
A little bit of tears,
A little bit of happiness,
A little bit of fear.
Just because you don't like what I am,
Just because you don't like what I've become,
Just because you don't like me,
I'm 13 years old and I'm bisexual. My family is Christian and nobody knows but my sister. She's bi also. I wanna tell them, but I don't know how they'll react.
Life is unfair; sometimes the misery we can't bear.
This was a feeling I could never share.
I am strong, strong enough to move on from this pain.
I won't feel the shame; my life is not a game.
I can also relate to your story when I was 28 years old I suffered from 2 ruptured brain aneurysms. I learned later than it was a miracle of God that I had survived because 99 percent of...
Life is a long-distance journey
With ups and downs,
Twist and turns,
With sad and happy moments.
Be brave.
You already are.
Look at what you've made it through.
The wounds of your past have healed.
It is a poem which infuses courage to those who have direct experience of war, making them think positively about life, forgetting the bitter past. We also faced a similar situation as a...
Who is that man?
Staring back at me
Is he a part of my past?
Or who I am destined to be?
Dude, I understand completely. Sometimes I don't know who I am or who I'm supposed to be.
Take a step back,
Learn how to breathe.
Take a step back
And just be.
This was a beautiful poem about taking control. I deeply enjoyed this, especially because at the moment, I am going under quite a large amount of stress. There is a huge exam that includes...
I am broken,
Shattered into irreparable pieces.
Who is going to save me?
When will all of this cease?
