THE WORDS WE DIDN'T SAY

Image
Canva AI Image The Words We Didn’t Say It’s the words we didn’t say. That killed us in the end. For when you walked away. I lost my best friend. Our relationship lost meaning. The little things we used to do. The good times and the bad times. Everything that we went through. No longer seemed to matter. When you walked out that door. It’s like we just gave up. It wasn’t worth fighting for. And I’m supposed to be able. To start over one more time. Yet I’m not even able to write. My words no longer rhyme. Yes, it’s what we didn’t say. That I feel with such regret. That brought us to our end. A love I can’t. I won’t forget. Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 5.19.2025  

LOVE WON'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE

LOVE WON’T LIVE HERE ANYMORE I gave you all my trust and love  You had it from the start I thought I knew all I needed to And that you’d protect my heart I can’t believe I failed yet again This is my biggest regret How could I not have seen through you At that point, we'd not yet met But when our hands fit together perfectly Mine wrapped in yours, just like a glove I knew that all my doubts were wrong  And that this was true love I pushed aside the warnings  And the few bright red and neon flags I kept it in the back of my mind Like that voice that always nags And later on that little voice  Would try to talk to me in bed I’d shake it off, laugh to myself And block out all she said At 49 I still want to think Love is real, and not a myth You don’t know, until you bare love's scars From all that you’ve dealt with I don’t know if I have any pieces of my heart left After losing so damn much I no longer care if I’m all alone Or ever feel another person’s touch How I ever...

I CHOOSE

I Choose People ask me why I’m single I say that’s how I choose to live Why stay in a relationship Where you’re the only one to give Always being attacked and then Expected to forgive I’m sorry, but that’s not a life I’d ever want to live I choose to stay single I don’t like to feel lost In relationships I have Always been double crossed Must protect myself No matter the cost I’m on my own path Where I never get lost So being single in this life Is what I’ve embraced Never have to worry About being replaced Handling everything No matter what I have faced Don’t judge me for this life That I have now embraced People ask me why I’m single I say it’s how I want to live I choose this path because I have nothing left to give If I stay single Then there’s no one to forgive So let me enjoy this life That I now love to live Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 1.28.2025  

THIS. TIME.

  THIS. TIME. They’re trying again… To rip me apart. My pain and my trauma, Dismantling my heart. That I’ve been attempting … Worked on it so hard. To piece it back together, Without the bits that are scarred. Don’t think I’m winning. Kinda feels like I’m lost. But I absolutely have to win, No matter the cost. Because I can’t become her. Can’t be that girl again. She isn’t strong enough. She’ll only take us to the end… And then it’s over. That’s all she wrote. I’m screaming from my lungs, Tearing up my throat! Maybe this time, I should ask for help. Actually ask out loud. Not some fake mental yelp, That no one can hear, Because it’s just in my head. Don’t wanna wake up, Dead in my bed. So this time. I’m gonna call out your name. No longer hiding behind, my guilt and all my shame. Yes, this time. Gonna grab hold of your hand. Help pull me out, Of this sinking sand. Yes, This time. The whole village if needed. Won’t give up on my new life. I won’t be defeated! Oh yes. This time. I’m ...

WHEN THE TRUTHS BECOME THE LIES

  When The Truths Become The Lies When the lies become the truths And the truths become the lies When every waking hour Is full of endless cries When sleep becomes elusive When all you know is pain You feel completely lost There’s nothing left to gain That’s when you must attempt To reassess your life You must start over now It’s time to sheath the knife Picture in your mind Start the wheels to turning Might be a little rusty Fighting through the hurting Plant the seeds of purpose Research what you don’t know Every little step you take Is the returning of your glow Once you get warmed up You will start to see the shine All you really needed Was a gentle nudge behind And it’s okay to falter Two steps forward, one step back Just remember that your reason It’s not all white and black Some things can hold all the color Every hue and every shade They can still lose their luster Their loveliness can fade So you just need to be you There is no one else to impress You are all that matters ...

Untitled - A Poem By: Oliver Hernandez

People wrong you and do things out of spite Do they love you or hate you? If it is love they have for you Why do things that aren’t right? Love is complicated just to be clear Sometimes it brings happiness Other times it brings tears Not everybody wrongs you, just to be sure Most love you and treat you well, no matter what Let’s keep loving and caring until for hate we find a cure.   Poetry Written By: Oliver Hernandez Poetry Published By: Eryn Dunbar

Blooming - A Poem By: William Pope

Anything I can do, you can do better! Often wearing the most lovely of Christmas sweaters. From a Caterpillar to a Chrysalis, before learning how to fly A butterfly innately knows how to metamorphosize You're on the correct path to find catharsis Be it one step forward or two steps back, the secret is forgiveness.

Forgiveness - A Poem By Katyana

He opened me up Showing me how to fill up my cup Everyday a mystery and adventure Leaving me longing for life like torture Love my curse you left me Hate my dear you came in bold A life trying to understand to heal To be the one who came out on top Today I will win I will be ok I will fill up my cup Poetry Written By: Katyana Poetry Published By: Eryn Dunbar

Stronger Together - We Are Not Alone

STRONGER TOGETHER - WE ARE NOT ALONE I am lost. I am truly afraid. Scared of my mistakes. The price to be paid. My actions. Are not always the best. In this life. I am losing my zest. For love. I no longer chase it. Frightened. My anger will start to replace it. It's time. To start my self healing. Fix all my problems. That I have been dealing. My thoughts. Scattered here and there. My emotions. I'll become more aware. My heart. I'm laying it bare. Knowing that you might not even care. That I'm trying. To rise above all the pain. Finding myself. I will try to regain. Compassion. Help my sisters and brothers. Try to help heal. There are so many others. Hurting. We will all become strong. Helping each other. Fix all that is wrong. I love you. Of that I am sure. Let us all be mindful, loving and pure. Let's start the journey. Let's all heal one another. Love your own self. Forgive your own mother. Together. We will reach for a star. As one. I know we'll go far....
