Like a still photo this poem captures that pause in time where being struck by someone or something leaves one speechless. It is as if time pauses. Well done.

Got you, and for my money you are right.
Popped in to your home page and read \"I am a 19 year old who like many don\'t really understand the world but pretends to do so\" I like this very much, and would advise you to keep asking the right questions...
Ps: I\'m Dave, no Mr.

The outside world in your head can be a crazy place, the inside to some can be the same.
The good thing is,99.9 % of what you think is going to happen never does.
The proof is in the pudding.

I

The waves of emotion that come and go from love to hate. Yes the I is our only reference point making us a self centered and narcissistic being unable to see from the outside. Nicely done.

The tree
sorenbarrett said:
Some look at a tree and look for what is behind it. Some see wood for construction and art, some profit, others an ornament for their lawn. How many really see a living thing with a life span longer than ours that gives us oxygen to breath, that communicates and cooperates with its brethren, provides a home for birds and shade for the weary. A teller of stories in its rings. Some that provide medicine. So many things in a tree and a lovely write in so few rhyming words very nicely done. A fave

Recently I came across a reel where a girl of a certain skin color was being trolled for merely saying she feels confident in her skin and even beautiful. I am of the opinion that we should see people, a step away from our narrow conditioned view of beauty and ugliness, and take on how nature sees the world; to nature there is no good or bad. We can choose to love each other.

The Monsters
Thomas W Case said:
There’s a damn effective reversal here, because the childhood monsters under the bed slowly become almost comforting once they’re compared with the real dangers waiting beyond the bedroom door. The final “what stood beyond my door / out there in the world” lands hard precisely because nothing supernatural is needed—the real monster is adulthood, and the loss of that childhood illusion of safety.

Yes, the monsters outside sure beat the monsters inside any day.
Mind you, social media is the monster now.

This takes the opposite route of the idea that it is the monsters inside not out that one needs to fear. A thought that growing up is more to fear than remaining a child. Nicely done.

Love Me So
sorenbarrett said:
A plea for closeness and acceptance to hold as one in the storms of life. Clever rhyme adds to this poem. Nicely done
