An Open Letter to Society
ModernPoemLover said:

This is such a moving and inspirational poem, I find it sad that as a girl I and all females can relate to this. But with every poem, post, conversation and law, we become closer to making sure this never happens to the next generation of girls

Twin Flames
L. B. Mek said:

\'if you love them, let them go
and if it\'s true love, they\'ll find their way back...\'
that\'s the concept you\'ve unfurled so delicately
in this write, I think
I really liked your pacing, utilised your stanza breaks to full effect, and it added to the stories gripping feel of unravelling,
thanks for sharing!
\'Patiently waited for each other
To slowly grow
*separated, yet together
As to allow *their better, to blossom
And darkness, to shed its skin

Twin flames, *although
Alone, their flames are weak and dim
Together, they could burn down the world!\'

The Void

There is so much sadness in this writing , I’m sorry that you feel this way

But you have expressed it so well

Emotional words
Difficult way to feel I’m sure

The Void
L. B. Mek said:

\'Numbness is like a disease
Never fully satisfied, until
it consumes you completely\'..
there\'s a Space between Depressed and Disillusioned -
its a tipping point, precipice
that few, talk about..
I\'ve come across it a few times in others and in that unforgiving mirror,
its a gap in realisation-Time
between, the You
Fighting
and the who, You always thought
you would become...
there\'s no easy avenue for escape, since
few recognise its symptoms bars on that, jail cell island;
instead, what hope we have to traverse and overcome
this moment of bewilderment in our lives
exists entirely: within, ourselves
since only we can identify its ravenous appetite, for our complete destruction.
so those of us lucky enough, to catch it early - before
it festers and warps our capacity to wage a war:
must Fight!
\'And I am a thunderous rain cloud

I learned to unlove
When the people I held close
hurt me
I became an empty void\'..
Empty, by choice
so as to be Ready
for the Better, You deserve!
\'We must first
get rid of the poison, before
we look for a cure...\'
A brave, intense and intimate write
thanks for sharing!
