The Leaden Curtain
by Tyler Morello

"It's time! it's time," cry all in line
"To lift the leaden curtain!"
And all retract their final act
To tread on paths less certain.

To seek the truth we lost in youth,
A wise man's words unspoken.
Through all the strife we bear in life,
No heart is left unbroken.

Desire
by Tammy Darby

The battle ensued
Between combatants heart and mind
As loneliness whispered softly
Of tenderness
In cooing song and rhyme

The brain issued a stern warning
Of heartache and the tears of sorrow
The turmoil of the soul
And the price

With or without
by Kuenzang Dorji

Home of nigricollis, the U glacial valley
Amidst a twilight, I shall knock your ingo
Ask me not any; with or without, but I
If only I, inflate not the burning cut
But welcome the chills of Pelela lamo
For the cause, it truly accompanied
By dayspring, open the golden gate of shrine
To voice-the long waited prayers
And brow, to hit the divine floor
Wish it or not, nothing stays long

sober
by Nishadrew Caranto

Half empty bottles
Staring at cracked picture frames
"Hmm...what have I done?"
It does not even look good...
...but, it sure do feels lovely

Stellar and Sorrowful
by Evan L

I'm the atom, destined to die, you're the binding nuclear force. When I split in two my neutrons will fly and begin their volatile course.
They'll bore into your heart, your plutonium core, and start the chain reaction. As we blast apart into lovers no more, we'll become a tragic fraction.
Never whole, just broken, a cosmological defect. Now your love is a celestial anomaly that I can't seem to detect.
The radioactive fallout has poisoned my very soul, now finding warmth in this nuclear winter has become my primary goal.
Despite all the emotion and the gravity we felt, you've banished me away to freeze in the Kuiper Belt.
I spent your love at a cosmic casino, too drunk to see its worth. Now we don't interact as if you were a neutrino passing unimpeded through the earth.
My neurons scream, the axons quiver, the synapses fire and force me to shiver. My liver is scarred and tired, my kidneys are swollen and aching, my sense of direction expired and my self control is breaking.
Your eyes were like candles in nebulae, tear ducts dripping wax. So like a star that can't sustain its fusion, I will implode and collapse.
The resulting supernova will be the final echo of my quiet sobs at night, and the ensuing black hole will consume all wavelengths in every beam of light.
No particle, no quantum data, will escape those jaws of density. I hope that you'll forgive me if it's in your cardiac propensity.

Yet another rainy day
by Karan Shah

Life’s flown around me
Like an abandoned forest trail
The serene calmness and a burning desire
A trail that is both, Ice and Fire
Teeming with life and devoid of touch
The joyous energy of meditation
And an anxiety, too much
The morning chirps
The calm rays
The creepy webs

Cycle of Life: A Journey Through Growth and Decay
by Filip Hammarström

Sunrise, the beginning of day, awakening of life
Bringing new light, creating a story
With that which can’t be bought
But only with cherish, tender and humble

The dispersal of seeds, a migration of life
Ever reaching, wanting growth
Like birds roaming the skies, longing, searching
The young forever seeking, hoping, wishing

Vulture
by Sofi Reyes

I am a vulture.
I prey on other people's emotions, and I use them to write my stories.
I go to a funeral and come out with stories of death, and the bittersweet rememberance.
I attend a wedding and emerge with stories of heartbreak and love.
I visit the hospital, and leave with stories of life and death, love and hatred.
I am a vulture.
I feed on other people's emotions because they are easier to understand than my own.

Chaotic emotion
by Khalid Hasan

I stripped my emotion
like petty whore she is
kissing her, dressing her in cloths I love
in her laps I dream infinite cosmos.
though no love, I feel even cherished
the time I bought for me
like winter evening in mellow whiteness
like my beloved in glittering white pool
becoming a part of what is serene
yet she is ever so caring ,
