  It’s just gone 2 in the morning / And the world has turned away / There’s no love left to give you / And there’s nowhere safe to stay. T…

  I wrote this poem for a future event which, sadly, I know will happen one day. Teens aren’t all ‘typical’ teens. Please listen to them and watch for the signs. Teen suicide is a reality and a tragic one. Please read the partner piece to this by Abeona

• (Please read, all youth...) The Underage Slut, and the Adult Shell of a Human
  by G. Merrick Justice

  At some point it occurred to me that my body was a hot commodity. Why only use it to get things from one guy, when I could use it get thi…

  I really don’t have more to say about this… except for the fact that it must have be a grace of some kind in my favor I at least came out of it HIV negative…

• Histories
  by Jo O'Brien

  and I hated her / and how she was a better person than me / sometimes it’s too late to learn

  A unpoetic, badly written, awkward piece of poetry – a suitable style for a suitably unpoetic existance / Documenting, discovering, uncovering, analysing, realising, criticising, hoping

• Is Anybody Out There?
  by Michelle Whennan

• Casualty of Depression
  by dimarie

  Your eyes have lost their lustre, / Your smile I see no more, / Your lack passion for all around you, / Your depression is eating my soul…...

  Some people who are very dear to me are goin thru the depths of depression… / as much as I will be there for them, and do all i can… / sometimes i feel i am a bit of a casualty of their despair… / my own feelings and pain and issues are pushed aside, kept hidden, so as to give them what they need…. / I cant be there if i’m focusing on my own issues… / but sometimes it all gets a bit much / but we will get thru it / no matter how long it takes… edited to add…. / I understand depression, and its power… / those of you who know me, will knhow of my own depression that I have had since i was a child…and my utter contempt for my own depression, and denial and defiance of it that i go thru daily to the point where quite often i can come across as quite positive…full of life. / Its usually an act…to a degree…. / no words i speak are lies, i mean all of what i say, i see the good in all things, and its thru this that i have been chewed up and spat out too many times to count / and i have forgiven some of those who did wrong onto me / but others i havnt been able to… / this despair of my own, is always brimming just under the surface / always there waiting for me to get knocked down even slightly so it can consume me… / and so it does sometimes / but then the highs of life will kick in and i feel so great and truly positive and i have love and smiles for everything…. / nothing is really that bad…. / not lack of funds or food… / or peoples shitty moods / or dealing with all the past… / but it doesnt last / its never strong enough to coax my loved ones out of their own despair / and at times i have to leave / breathe / because their despair is contaminating my happy delusions… it threatens…no it does…take the sweetness out….. / and they see it…they see me breaking… / and it kills them / and that kills me / and its such a bit if a twisted mess / But i am resolved to be there for them / be there to the end

• Trash or Treasure?
  by ein22

  You really rely on that Eight Hundred Million to One chance / Kissing the ticket, and other superstitions

  What do we gamble with? And considering the stakes… This is about those who dream too much and avoid reality. Ignoring what is being jeprodized in the meantime.

  Silly poem that accompanies my short animation Dead Dogs Can’t… An attempt to tell children the reality of death and loss but in a humourous and sweet way. The poem is intended to be read aloud in a soft, maternal voice. In the animation this was narrated by my dear friend Elizabeth Kennedy. Dedicated to Foxy.

  by Lys •

  My eyes shift to hers, creating a spark of empty realization…

  when the time comes… / / (inspired by my nomad lifestyle and written with a friend from back home when we could find time online over the past few days.) / / - / I listened to a lot of Regina Spektor for this, namely the song I titled it after, Samson. Give it a listen. while you read. Might help with the emotions and understanding where I’m coming from with the title. /
