So...Hollidays of joy are comming up soon.
Durring the hollidays I become sad for all the people alone durring these days.
What I want is some dark poetry in the midst of all this joy. I know there is sadness and I want you to let it out and share that pain with me.
I dont like long poems but if you think you can do it without boring me or draging on go for it.
This is a free-write so write however you like.
It can ryhme, but I'm a big stickler on grammer.
We have spell check for a reason!
If you need some ideas, here you go:
1. A old woman sitting alone with no one
2. A man with a dead wife
3. A mother with only a son thats away at war
4. A homeless man
5. A young boy/girl in the getto with nothing to celebrate
You can write about anything. I just want to feel it.
