by Mackenzie Bilz

Why is it, it seems
That all the trouble comes from me?
I’m the reason,
no other explanation
All the pain seeps from me.

Pointing fingers
Frantic eyes
Desperate seekers
To nothing I find

Chasing Dreams and Fading Stars
by Oscar Auliq-Ice

I am a traveler in this life,
Drifting through days and nights,
Chasing dreams and fading stars,
Hoping to find my place, my bars.

The world is vast, and I am small,
Yet I have a voice, a story to tell,
Of love and loss, joy and pain,
Of all that makes life worth the strain.

FAILURE
by Tanisha Grover

Let's talk about it,
Let's undergo through it,
Let's counterreason it,
Let's acknowledge it,

Let's not bound to it,
Let's not be scared of it,
Let's not overthink it,
Let's not allow it to demolish our dreams,

A Fool Has No Access To Success
by mv venkataraman

A fool gets cheated,

He gets easily defeated,

He has never repeated,

But, has only retreated,

He has never completed,

So What!
by Yahaya Qasim

So what? Even if I gather all the cakes of life,
And I eat with golden plate, spoon and knife;
My ride on Unicorns wouldn't stop the clock,
Even if I share with non from my luck.
So what? it's easier for a camel through the eye;
Than a rich man to make the kingdom of the sky.

Even if the dreary death will never desist,
From ending my breath; even if I resist.
Those who know me will know me no more;

All on Me
by Bame Bame

Hi mum,
You raised me well, all the bad about me is all on me
I lost my way along the journey; how do I turn back?
My desire to live a perfect life made me force things that didn’t fit
Your prayers saved me
But what will sustain me?
They said there is a spell cast upon me, I didn’t believe in such
But if I am not a threat, why are dark forces fighting me this hard?
You taught me patience, I did the opposite
I knew what I wanted, but I didn’t wait for it

The futility of Joy
by Corben Bruce

I lie at night with music playing,
I convince myself it is to inspire
to create or feel or help me sleep
Instead i use it to drown the thoughts from my mind
An empty canvas with bright colours

I lie with eyes open in the darkness
for to close them is to invite images to fill the void
When they are open i see nothing
but closed i can see everything

Alone, I wept and confronted my plight
by Adison Ahuja

In the depths of struggle, I confronted my plight,
With trepidation and uncertainty, my soul bled.
Alone, I wept, fears concealed, hidden from sight.

Weeks stretched on, casting shadows of blight,
As I grappled with the weight that lay ahead.
In the depths of struggle, I confronted my plight.

Fearful of disappointing, my heart took flight,
Desiring to honor those who believed in me, I pled.
