Guns shoots falling like rain drops, everybody getting wet. Last month a little black boy got shot in the chest, granting his mother’s worst nightmare. How many more parents will be alive to see their children’s death? How many little brothers will lose their older brothers, how many little girls will grow up without sisters … Continue reading Poetry: “Aim for Change” By Chalice
I’m in recovery, I had an accident and it left me in pieces, now I’m scattered like bit size Reese’s. I snapped like a kit-kat and no one can put me back together, I’m full of fluff like a 3 musketeer but I’m getting better, starting to find a grip with my butterfingers but my … Continue reading Poetry: “The Sweetest Recovery” By Chalice
She’s sun kissed, honey dipped, mixed with a few chocolate chips, she is sweet… so sweet I could eat a bowl full of her.

I fear that you’ll leave me… Because you’ll realize I’m not worth it and although I try, it’s just “worth less” than what another man can offer you. You constantly excuse me like a tissue but one day your unsatisfaction will be an issue. I’m hurting on the inside with that as a possibility and … Continue reading Poetry: “My Biggest Fear” By Chalice
I like you… like Instagram and if I could I would triple tap because two is not enough to display the affection I have for you… 15 seconds isn’t enough video time for me to look at you. 1700 followers, yet you’re the only one that matters, that’s 1699 people that couldn’t even star as … Continue reading Poetry: “Social Media Love” by Chalice

My heart is mixing red and blue, I’m all purple and bruised on the inside because of you.

I am a prisoner to the thoughts … Continue reading Poetry: “A Tragedy” By Chalice
