“Some souls speak with no words said” by Avalynn Kelley
Some souls speak with no words said, the ones who show love through action when others have fled. They are the animals— the ones who sit with you when you cry, who watch you grow, and never leave your side. My love for animals will always be ongoing, because at my lowest, I didn’t receive…

“The silence” by Avalynn Kelley
The silence The chatter, the noise, the breathing. The eyes, the smiles, the people pretending to be what they project. I look around in a room full of souls, and though the uproar surrounds me, the silence in my head is the loudest sound. The emptiness in my chest is what I push away, yet…

“My life, it’s full, yet I feel so empty.” by Avalynn Kelley

Whispers Between the Graves (by Peyton Christensen)
Love and dying stroll hand in hand,Footsteps fading into sand.One a whisper, smooth and sweet,The different cold, but bittersweet. I cherished you once, in mild so fair,Beneath the sun, without a care.Now shadows stretch in which roses grew,Yet still, my coronary heart belongs to you. Death kindly knocked on your door.Nothing more, just took your…

“Lost and Wondering” by Peyton Christensen
I go a route I’m unfamiliar with, through dense forests with chilly winds. The trees lean in and murmur, whispering softly, yet they are not seen.
