Silence screams
at the
dead of night.
*
Tension sits
heavy in
your chest.
*
Thoughts roam
in the
darkness, uninvited.
*
Will you hear
the call
of the silent?
*
Or will you
ignore them like
everyone else?

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

Feelings Never Die
It is Valentine's Day again, and it bought back memories that were over fifty years old. It bought me back to 1971, and I woke up and I knew my baby was due today. I was big and pregnant, and I felt like I was about to burst wide open. Imagine my surprise when the doctor told my I had a due date of February 14. I couldn't believe it, and since my baby was due today, I felt I could indulge myself a bit. I had gained a lot of weight, and chocolate was on the no-no list, but I had came to the end of this pregnancy, and I hoped it would be okay, after all I would deliver this baby today. So I walked across the street to the grocery story, and bought myself, a peppermint patty, covered in chocolate, my favorite. Me and my Valentine's baby would enjoy it together.

I like the contrast between silence and screaming. When nothing else is there, it really does sound like that. For me, I will not ignore them. I will melt into it instead… I’ll let it tell me what it needs to. Fantastic work Luna. You’ve given us something to think about. It’s an important road to set us on ♥️🤗
I'll just ignore it, lol. Loved your poem!
Good question and not sure. A thinking person's poem.
