Ode to Death

Art: Guillaume Martinez, Words: @writing-for-life

She walks among us, unseen but ever present,

Her name all but whispered,

Her laughter a melody that echoes through time,

A reminder that even in endings, there are beginnings.

Her eyes hold secrets of harsh farewells and tender partings,

And when she comes, it is not with sorrow,

But with solace for fractured hearts,

Giving passage to realms where pain finds release.

Her touch a benediction,

Her cool embrace a quilt woven with threads of memory,

Each soul a star in a celestial tapestry,

Each goodbye a note in eternal song.

If I am still whole, I cannot feel it,

Into my core, I am sleeping,

The phases I feel now are next to nothing; I am hurting,

Yet I cannot find a tear,

To shed my burden,

It is as if I am sleeping, but still the world keeps turning.

-Kill the Mirage Poetry / Tracy Cregg

Thanks for reading!

Small Revolutions [2/8/24]

a million small revolts

can add up to a revolution

if now it seems pointless,

like what you're doing isn't enough

you're not alone

there is a story

it's always stuck with me

it's about a man who tosses

starfish

back into the sea

someone tells him

that he can't possibly

save all those starfish,

but he saved so many,

did he not?

just because your small revolt

doesn't make a dent,

in the giant hurt of the world,

some individual, someplace,

was saved

and what happens,

if many more people were on that beach

how many starfish could be saved,

if enough people

did something deemed insignificant

Tired

When I say I am tired

I sometimes hope people can see

for what it's worth

almost like a plea

I am constantly fighting myself

telling myself, "it's not worth it"

I cannot stand on the side

and see my family crumbling inside

with no answers to why

and justify it with a sad smile

I cannot see them die inside

when I finally find my peace

where the thoughts aren't following me

in the never ending battle with me

if only it was so easy to sleep

then perhaps I won't be tired

but I am.

So stop telling me how I should feel.

You are chaotic up close. You function in oxymoron's. You're like an impending collision that's hard to look away from.

Please don't leave me.

A Wish

Even i wish to stay the same

I want slither into that corner of yours

Come up to you gently

Kiss you tenderly on the cheek

Say that I love you

Just hug you tightly

And quietly adore nature's beauty

Your Beauty

What do I see in you,

From your crown down to your toe?

The thoughts in your mind and your soul that’s true.

I shall tell these, so in words beauty does grow.

Your hair that falls

Like the fire in the Yosemite,

Does compare to the sword that guards the walls

Of Eden, held by that heavenly entity.

Your eyes that could allure

Conquerors into the thickest of jungles

My attention they adjure

And when I see them! Why, my heart stumbles.

And so my heart I base on yours!

For this year and then many more.

For man, would fight many wars,

Just for the beauty, in that heart I adore.

Your soul is the gold the colonizers sought.

It is filled with the glory they needed.

It is stronger and louder than guns with which they fought.

It is too good to be unheeded.

So, please do not abjure me.

Even if I’m not who you desire.

I will sit by you, lonesome but with glee.

For there I will write your beauty for the one you’ll admire.

I write my truths

My faults...

The hurt I feel

You've read it all

I am an opened diary

I have nothing to hide

Every post you see is how I feel inside

It may seem one sided

But I'm sure others can relate

Anything I've said is up for debate

I've been at this for years

And at times it seemed like a struggle

This writing thing fits to me like pieces of a puzzle

I write for you, I write for me

My words can be meant for anybody

I don't want to stop

I'm so close to the top

It's been written

And I hope you all can bare witness

Everytime I think about what I’ve created

I feel my heart shake and jump around

It gets so excited to be seen

Finally

It screams

‘Thank you! Thank you for letting me out!’

Immortalizing you

You are everything that I hate Everything that I regret now Everything that I can’t even forget about. It’s impossible to turn back

What if I never called quit. What if you stood by me. What if we were meant to be. In my head we could Only if

You never ever see All the things I did just to move on If this is my last night immortalizing you Just for you to know That I will tell my legacy about How I went heartless because of you

I never moved on. I don’t think I really can. I hate myself for not letting you go. That toxic, you know?

- Letízia Carrizo

Fungi Funeral [1/4/24]

Who decomposes

a fungus, when she dies?

Does her next of kin, break her down,

thinking "Oh, oh, dear mother of mine"?

Does a mushroom return

to the earth that she's built?

The earth that she's turned

into dirt made from silt?

Does a mushroom grieve

for her family, forgotten?

And is she alone

until she herself is rotten?

Do fungi feel

as alone as we do?

Does a mushroom want

a love just as true?

I've read that fungi

make paths in a way

similar to those

that a computer may.

Are we the same?

Both inside and out?

After all, after death,

we become a brand new sprout

In This Life

We were always so near

Yet so far apart

You were always in my sight

Yet just out of my reach

I wish i had accepted it earlier

What i knew my heart was saying

I wish i hadn't been so ignorant

I wish i didn't make those mistakes

Because all I wish now is

We were together in this life

Love?

So, what is love?

This thing that we chase.

Is it a gloriful gift from above?

Or, is it from a more strange place?

For I have seen love in the mountains,

And I have seen it flow into the brackish rivers.

Love even flowed in the most dry desserts .

More common than water, and chased like wealth; It must be life’s pillars.

So, if place doesn’t matter.

From where does love come?

Love even has many a actor

That plays the role as an excuse to be scum.

So love doesn’t have a standard.

Nor does it have a home.

Yet, people flee from their own substandard,

Leaving love abandoned and alone.

Which makes me wonder, how could a heart beat

To such a chaotic drum?

Knowing the possibility of being filled with conceit.

Knowing that it could be broken and left glum.

Yet all our hearts keep marching on.

Knowing the path isn't promised to last.

So, we musn’t question

We must make our own unique love the part that will last.

(I don't really care for this so forgive me if it's substandard but I wanted to post it still)
