Slipping.
Faster and faster.
Why won't you stay.
You don't need to go any faster.
I can keep up.
Promise me you will wait.
My hand is slipping may we please go slower.
Your hand moving away faster.
Please I want to hold onto you longer.
You're letting me go.

Eyes in the shadows
by Daniel Ryan Cotler
In the quiet of my home,
where I thought I’d found some peace,
He hid his eyes in shadows,
his cruelty never ceased.
With cameras set in secret,
to watch me through my strife,
He recorded every struggle,
every moment of my life.
His goal was not just to hurt,

Isolation in a crowd
by Corben Bruce
Isolation in a crowd
We laugh, we smile, we joke
We weep and hug and cry
Jokes and joy,laughter and love
And still alone I feel all night
I know that together we all are
But still as one I feel at heart
Unsure of myself, unsure of my place

Heartache Avenue
by Mario Odekerken
Down Heartache Avenue
the lights flicker low,
each step echoes
without memories
I didn't choose to keep.
Windows reflect
faces I once knew,
laughter fades
into a silence

Hard to love Easy to forget
by Carlos Garcia
Why am I here again
Time after time after time
Why have tears become an abundance
Time after time after time
Why does failure always stay and accomplishment always go

Things that Fade Quietly
by J.P. Madrid
I think I started forgetting you
on a Wednesday afternoon,
somewhere between folding laundry
and listening to the rain tap the window.
It didn’t hurt,
not at first.
Just a small,
unnoticeable shift in the weather.
You were never mine.

Loop
by J.P. Madrid
Nothing makes me happier than her—
the way her name feels
like a sunrise pressed into my chest,
how her laugh
sounded like something I used to pray for
before I knew how to put it into words.
And nothing makes me sadder than her—
the way she became
a recurring character in poems

Unbidden Echoes
by Mario Odekerken
I strive to cast your shadow from my mind,
yet there you dwell,in corners hard to find.
Like whispers woven through the silent air,
your presence lingers,haunting everywhere.
I chase new dawns to wash you from my sight,
but memories emerge with morning's light.
In dreams, you wander through my night's domain,
a phantom tethered to my heart's refrain.
