Soul Poems
A Song of Resilience
by Ayatullah Nurjati
In mountains high and rivers wide,
Nature speaks, no truth to hide.
It bends, it breaks, but it endures,
Through storms and rains, its heart secure.
Look to the earth, O soul of mine,
In its resilience, God’s grace shines.
A life of trials, yet peace it brings,
Nature whispers the wisdom of kings.

Soul
by Peter Jay Shippy
A night of freezing rain has turned the snow banks
into Eames, into molded plastic
At the bus stop, our muster lacks punch
Our faces are drawn to our salt-dusted boots
Signs warn children about wasted motion
lest they thaw too soon
The sun looks like a tea stain on Somerset paper

Break The Chains
by Joanne Lee Macdermott
Wait a second, am I trapped, chained to my own disillusion? Every day I awaken and create the same conclusion.
How is it that I can not stop this routine from repeating? For in my heart I can see it's my truth I'm defeating.
Chained to my ego...Its still got a hold of me. The more I try to escape...the more it grasp me.
Tried to fight it, but sinking in quick sand. My personality follows and willingly takes it's hand.
The addiction it consumes me and brings me no peace. I strive for perfection, on the outside at least.
For what is it I am hiding, what will I not let them see? Need to dig deep for I hold the key.
Chained to my ego...Its still got a hold of me. The more I try to escape...the more it grasp me.
Control is overwhelming find it hard to breathe. But to far I have travelled to let this take me.
This prison I created to hide behind the walls. The fear of being criticized began when I was small.
So now I cling to the pursuit of perfection, lost in the haze of blurred deception.

My Forever Shining Star...
by Raina Hutchins
All the oceans in the world
Can’t hold the tears I’ve cried
Nothing in this world
Can take away this pain inside
I can’t believe you’re gone from me
I can’t believe its true
I never wanted memories
I only wanted you

Posiemom
by AiR - Atman in Ravi
Who is God, where is God, what is God? This question is in our head
We pray to God, we go to a temple
But ultimately, we are dead
We fold our hands and pray to God
Oh Lord, our problems you must solve Some of us seek to fulfil our dreams And so, the Lord we involve
But a few of us, our God we love
As we live, for God we yearn
These are the ones who realize God The biggest treasure they earn

Divine Longing
by Ayatullah Nurjati
You are the air that fills my soul,
The whisper in winds that makes me whole.
Yet human I am, with flaw and stain,
Yearning for purity, escaping pain.
In this love, where mercy overflows,
I find myself, in both highs and lows.
No earthly hand, no fleeting embrace,
But in Your sight, I find my place.

Yayu's AI Face of Nausea
by Yayu Uppsurya
In shadows deep where specters dwell,
A bitter stench of truth, they tell—
Each twisted smile a mask of grace,
Yet underneath, the hollow space.
Upon a plate, sweet lies deceive,
With colors bright, our hearts believe—
Yet taste reveals the rotting core,
A banquet set on fervent lore.

I cry
by Sonja D.
I cry
not 'cause I miss you
you out of reach
vast oceans apart.
I cry
not 'cause I crave you
your soul love’s
sweetest dark racine.

Soul bride
by Sonja D.
People around me not seeing my
Lips throbbing with kisses
Throat chocking with words
Arms brimming with hugs.
People speaking to me not hearing your
Voice’s silent whispers
Loudest echos
Asking for my hand.
