Hurt Poems
You'll never know how I feel
by Mario Odekerken
You'll never know how I feel,
behind the quiet, behind the steel.
A thousand storms beneath my skin,
all the wars I fight within.
I smile and nod,I play the part,
but silence stitches up my heart.
You see the calm,the steady grace,
not the nights I can't erase.

A Book
by Mohammed Irshad Shamsi
A book, hideous and white,
Half way through its fight,
Met a pen, high with might.
It's tip so smooth.
Ink like a soft flute.
It's form, loving and cute.
Now the book had this weired feel,
It thought the pen was here to fill.

"Broken Promise, Withered Growth"
by Aditi Hayaran
In the flower pot we had,
We planted a seed.
We'll take care of it, we promised,
We'll provide its every need.
It germinated soon;
As the seedling started to glow,
The sweetness flooded,
Without anything restricting it's flow.

You'll never know how I feel,
behind the quiet, behind the steel.
A thousand storms beneath my skin,
all the wars I fight within.
I smile and nod,I play the part,

You see the calm,the steady grace,
not the nights I can't erase.

Hey, Little Brother
by Author Reinvented
Hey little brother,
What happened here?
When you were younger,
You used to be so dear.
You'd play with your trucks, then you'd brush my barbies' hair.
Now you walk with a strut, say all women are sluts, and speak with a sneer.
Hey little brother, what happened here?
When we were younger, you used to be so dear.

Zonder jou
by Mario Odekerken
We hebben zoveel jaren gedeeld
dromen opgebouwd,muren gesloopt
elkaar leren kennen in stilte en storm
ik dacht dat wij zouden blijven.
Jouw ogen zeiden niets toen ik het vroeg
je stem werd stil waar waarheid
hoorde te zijn
en in die stilte groeide een breuk
niet van gisteren,maar van langzaam verdwijnen.

maybe the only way to find out is death
by Mackenzie Bilz
What do I do?
I feel like everything just keeps going wrong.
Things get worse and worse and never improve.
Every time I see the light, I can never reach it.
What do I do?
Hope is there.
Just at the edge of my fingers.
At the tip of my tongue.
It’s under my nose.

My biggest mistake
by Mario Odekerken
My biggest mistake
was loving you
with all the parts of me
I should have saved.
I gave you silence
when you needed truth,
patience
when you gave me distance,
hope

Salt in the wound
by Mario Odekerken
You said it was nothing.
A moment. A breath.A slip.
But it felt-
sharp,exact,deliberate.
Like salt pressed
into a wound
that was already trying to close.
Pain doesn't always scream.
Sometimes it just sits there,
