Chapstick
by Teo Luchin

There’s a quiet in the clutter,
a stillness in the scattered remnants
of days that blur together.
A sock without a partner,
an empty gum container,
dead batteries waiting for a final farewell.
all of them stranded in the corners of the everyday,
reminders of the passing time.

I used to resent them, these remnants of ownership,

Civil No More
by Darris van-Hoxen

veer for his words
well I don't know what you heard
sit still with this herd
slip you a slicker
oil drum's gone aflicker
can't so soon be stopped
Pandora's demon right out the box
up in your ear
projecting all your fear
onto me, onto he, onto xhe

Still In The Closet
by Shay Grace

So this is the first time I've confessed being gay
I guess I never thought I would write that
I thought that if I hide and suppress this
That it would magically go away,
That like they all say, it was just a phase

But here I am a decade later still liking girls
I have been in the closet for so long,
I've never told a soul, the secrecy
And skeletons that lay in my closet

Waning, Waxing
by Goose and Nothing Else

I beg the Moon to guide her to my dreams:
Where Lethe fog casts the past in shades of oblivion,
And I can once more press reverent lips to her damp cheek.
Her skin holds the vivid memory of warmth under my kiss;
I weep.

Come Love, we will forget ourselves
for eternity.

Different Love
by Aheli Mustafi

Knew there was something different about me
I was just a kid who was so scared
Never understand what was so wrong with me
Did not know this fear was also shared
When I met her, I knew it was not wrong
I knew loving her couldn’t be a crime
It wasn’t long but our love was a song
I wish I could have loved her in daytime
They say it is a sin, but is it though?
Who says it is wrong to love who we want?

Dry on This Hill
by Darris van-Hoxen

Your neon drip,
I must admit,
minds me whinging,
of your bleach singeing

Call it free, you,
I'll say it's a fine tree, too,
lost in your sauce,
highlighted memes, an anime cross

An ultimatum
by Tobias Winters

An ultimatum stood at my door
And greeted me so fondly
To the tune of my thumping heartbeat.
"Live as I seem or die as I am"

The words had reverberated in my skull and rattled my bones-
Sick with grief and mourning
Of a life never lived,
A lick of air never tasted on a tongue of a new man-
Not man-soon-to-be, or transsexual or Pinocchio without the splintering of wood but of words,

Unrequited Love
by Micko Micko

Oh, cut me loose from these chains of love,
My mind is numb and my heart is broken,
To you I am a stranger, to me you are the only love of my life,
The girl of my dream in my dreams,
You have become my daily routine, my dose,
I'll  let my mind be consumed by what it desires the most,
Have I ever crossed your mind?
Oh, cut me loose from these chains of love.
