Whispers of the Storm
Whispers of the Stormsnowflakes fall one by one,silent whispers in the night,unique and fragile yet so bright,beneath the weight of quiet skies,their beauty hides the wind and lies,much like the storms within our world,where hidden battles slowly rise.but as the dawn sheds light ahead,they freeze and stay, and undoubtedly fade.a dance as the darkness stayed,to…

LLA by Envy Ray
In a world that once shimmered, vibrant, and boldNow silence whispers, a story untold.What was once so full of life, now ice cold,Echoes of laughter, once were memories of gold.Untold in the shadows where warmth used to lie,Time drifts on like a soft sighing cry,Beneath the cold slab where his quiet soul lies.In the embrace…

Peace at Last by Walker Summers
Gentle, I always wondered this feeling, felt like I’d never find it, Till you came along, I wasn’t sure if I liked it. My past didn’t matter to you, I know this time it’s different, Finally, I get a refreshment, a moment of pure contentment. That girl, so special, she’s divine… shit, she gotta be…

Three Points of View: a sequence of poems by Aracali Ramirez, Envy Ray, and Jei Enloe
Closer to Me by Envy Ray I walk fast, head down, feeling the weight, Like everyone’s watching, deciding my fate. I feel like I’m always one step behind, Like I don’t belong, no matter how hard I try. My body’s a battle I never sought, Wide shoulders and edges I’ve always fought. The mirror, a…

What Nature is for Us
Nature is the physical world and everything in it. It’s fresh, open, a slow breeze, and warm sun. It’s like a big box of crayons. The wind is rustling the leaves of the trees and the birds are singing alone, as I walk through the forest listening to nature’s song. God created beauty and the…

The Journey by Envy Ray
In halls where laughter twirls and dreams take flight.We navigate the shadows that hide from the light.Each step is a puzzle; a twist and a turn.With teachers guidance like stars we take what we learn. Through whispers of hope and tears that may fall.We find strength in our stories united, we stand tall.Though some days…

Prescription Cover – Avaya Sterrett
We are misunderstood by what they only see,forteens the burdens can be immense,Prescriptions that embrace a fragile defense. Just a young adult trying to seek for compassion,A shadow of smoke flows like the sea to ease the pain , And allow minds to wanderfree,Not forfun orthoughtless flights, But to sail our minds through the darkest…
