Gesture

Although I know
The feeling’s there,
I need a gesture
To show
That you still care.



#vsspoem prompt for September 16th, 2024: Gesture

One Way Back

Forgiveness begins
With a ladder
We climb together —
Openness,
Honesty,
Respect.
Only at the very top
May we find
Our one way back.




#vsspoem prompt for September 15th, 2024: Openness

Overcast

Lean into me,
Share our tears,
Your overcast,
Dark as mine —
I let go, become
The darkened sky.

#vsspoem prompt for September 14th, 2024: Overcast

Get Me Lost

Blind my foolish pride,
Conceal blue skies
So I may feel the rain.
Please guide my selfish mind astray
And get me lost,
To find myself again.




#vsspoem prompt for September 13th, 2024: Conceal

Flair and Function

Trying parts
Like fitting clothes,
Looking for both
Flair and function —
Who am I within this skin,
And will it help me
Sell my script
To those not looking
All too closely?




#vsspoem prompt for September 12th, 2024: Flair

Post-trust

Post-trust honesty,
Untimely insincerity
Seasoning a too-fresh wound —
What do you expect of me?




#vsspoem prompt for September 11th, 2024: Untimely

Unity

Love, respect, and unity,
Come and share
The world with me.




#vsspoem prompt for September 10th, 2024: Unity

Contrast in Moments

Wavering connection —
Contrast in moments
Make one feel
So alone.

#vsspoem prompt for September 9th, 2024: Contrast

How I Feel

Not to judge you,
Not to hurt you,
But this is how I feel.
Take from that
What you like,
Just don't misread my intent,
Sharing my pain,
Up to my neck in your wake.




#vsspoem prompt for September 8th, 2024: Misread

Restless Nights

Sleep, routine, and caffeine,
Onwards like a
Good little machine —
Never stop to question life,
Never pause to wonder why,
Happiness, supposedly
Only a few restless nights away.



#vsspoem prompt for September 7th, 2024: Supposedly

The Talk

Confide, relate,
Heart connection —
Feel the feels,
Embrace the talk.




#vsspoem prompt for September 6th, 2024: Confide

Tender Me

The scales of insecurity,
Honesty and validation —
Lie to me just enough
To soothe the tender me.




#vsspoem prompt for September 5th, 2024: Insecure

Little Gestures

Happiness in little gestures,
Three little words
Encapsulated,
Wordlessly expressed
In a love language all our own.




#vsspoem prompt for September 4th, 2024: Encapsulate

Love Bears

Hope floats,
Hearts sink,
Love bears —
Hold on.
I'll always be here.




#vsspoem prompt for September 3rd, 2024: Float

All That Hurts

It's but a scratch
And it will heal,
I will survive
This bleeding heart —
Will simply sort through
All my feelings,
And bury all that hurts.

#vsspoem prompt for September 2nd, 2024: Scratch

Feed the Dread

Actions
Impossible to follow
Feed the dread
That coats the hollow
Where affection once resided,
Where love’s flame is growing dim.
Open up, let me in.

#vsspoem prompt for September 1st, 2024: Coat

Stupid People

It's what the world
Has come to —
Stupid people
Watching stupid people
Solve stupid
Non-existent problems.
All praise the mighty View.




#vsspoem prompt for August 31st, 2024: Stupid

Turn It Up

I see the weather
Match my mood —
Black on black —
And I feel better.
Like a soundtrack
To my woes,
I turn it up,
And scream along.




#vsspoem prompt for August 30th, 2024: Soundtrack

Were I Selfish

Were I selfish
I'd follow
Your lead.


#vsspoem prompt for August 29th, 2024: Selfish

Still Here

I have known all along
That everything you told me
Was a lie,
But I'm still here, waiting.
I won't accuse, I'll never judge —
I won't even ask you why.
I'm just waiting for the end
Of the story to make sense.

#vsspoem prompt for August 28, 2024: Story
