The orchestra room inside of my school
A hidden and unappreciated jewel
I’ve learned many musical things in there
And forgotten a lot, but eh, who cares?
Causing a ruckus on the violin reverbates off the walls
We’ll play a scratchy rendition... – by Eden J | 4 Views added 1 year ago

My grandparents’ carport, not quite catching to the eye
Holds many memories from when I was a small fry
I was young and ignorant and sheltered and safe
I would play in the yard beside, my knees would chafe
The leaves dragged on from my feet

To my room,
Oh, the nights I spent in your atmosphere
Feeling disgusted with myself and the world around me
Room, I avoid you, don’t you know it?
Straining the last bit of dusk-time sunlight through your Venetian blinds
Quiet, disturbing... – by Eden J | 2 Views added 1 year ago

Serenity of an open backyard
Unable to hear cars and bustle for miles
The wind is always calling through the trees
Pushing gently on the swingsets, making them creak
You may choose to lay down on the sleek grass
Listen to the animals play in... – by Eden J | 6 Views added 1 year ago

My good canine friend, a good bit stupider than I
Sits on the floor, nips at her thigh
She does not know the comfort she brings me, how I adore her
Ignorant little dog, I'd do anything for her
She knows none of my problems, yet helps me... – by Eden J | 13 Views added 1 year ago

I’m from a neighborhood where no neighbor knows the other
I’m from a town of which I only know the name
I grew up in the country, life centered around southern grandparents
And I’m from mindsets of which are not the same as my own
I’m from... – by Eden J | 6 Views added 1 year ago

My heart is hollow and it is gut-wrenchingly so,
That I might not be able to carry my own weight anymore
I slump over and think of her;
She, that was so dear to me,
She is now no longer mine, and I've no use in the world.
My heart is hollow,... – by Eden J | 18 Views added 1 year ago

What is the point of human nature and society
MK-ULTRA never happened, we're all safe and happy
The government isn't threatening nuclear war under our noses
Your boyfriend must love you because, wow, he brought you roses
No one is lying to you... – by Eden J | 9 Views added 1 year ago

“Please” is the word I’ve been asked all my life.
“Please, stay strong.”
“Please, say you love me.”
“Please, be honest.”
And I never could let “please” mean anything to me.
It was too much of a burden, it has been misused greatly
By people who... – by Eden J | 14 Views added 1 year ago

Humanity, you are so strange.
So lovely, so wonderful, so strange.
You have your downsides, but the ups are somewhat clear
It’s disgusting how much I love you.
You’re problematic, a bruiser, you can be quite the enemy
And your exterior is... – by Joseph Scoopski | 30 Views added 2 years ago
