25 word poem

Janice Cochran

When I was with you,

I walked,

No longer crawled,

But ever since we

Departed,

I long for the feeling

Of feeling

Noting at all.

25 Word Poem

McKenzie Proctor

I long to

Know if

You’re alive

To feel

Your heart

Beating, tingling

With life

And I know

You’re the one

I can’t live without

When the Light Leaves

25 word poem

Vega Shepherd

When the light leaves

And the dark comes

When the skies are grey

And the clouds cry

When I see you

Nothing bad can happen

I Miss Your Smile

25 word poem

Riley Barger

I miss your smile

And I remember our

First kiss

And it will stay deep

In my heart

And it will be truly

Deeply missed

I Long

25 word poem

Bailey Inga

I long

For the days

With you

By my side.

To kiss you

Under the

Night sky.

My love

Is what I

Give to you.

Where Am I

25 word poem

Kendall Swindell

Where am I

Surrounded by fear

Crammed in a tiny room

10 children in a single bed

I never get to see you

In my life

At First

25 word poem

Reagan Meador

At first

All as fine

No fear

Now

It’s dark

At first

I could manage

Now

I’m getting killed

From the inside

Out.

At first

Stars

25 word poem

Lailah Wilborn

I gaze at the stars some nights,

Hoping for you to be freed.

I hope I’ll get to see your face once

More.

I’m waiting.

Tears

25 word poem

Sariya Szymanski

You bring tears to

My eyes,

My life is full of

Misery and sighs,

Please bring light,

So dark, cramped

So scared, lost, longing

Forgotten

The Smell

25 word poem

Avery Cobbs

The smell of

Death filled the air.

A place where

People always stare.

The sticks and stones

Broke my bones.

What happens – no

One knows.
