No Room for Forgiveness, Just Indignation – Kira Lozano

Should I writhe in your pathetic stare?
Should I give in completely and drive myself into an utter state of insanity?
There is nothing more than total pretense inside your glare.
You are nothing but a pitiful vanity.

Just the sight of you makes me sick.
I am Forced to choke down all the allegations
But am I still going to fall for your foolish trick?
No, there is no possible way I can give you the sensations.

Do you think that you deserve forgiveness?
Oh no, you’re undoubtedly mistaken.
Your deceitful remarks are giving me resistiveness
You must be swiftly forsaken.

I hope you drown in your own agonizing pain.
I’ll assume you don’t care.
Though you should know, you are completely in vain.
Just know that it isn’t fair.

You’ve caused me to suffer for ever so long.
Yet you’re still simply alright?
Just know you’ll always be wrong.
I’ll be the last to give you my spite

Stolen Music – Jade Ruiz

Looking up at the ceiling, thinking about how he could do this to her. These songs that she wrote on the floor of her bedroom, songs of timeless love, broken hearts, and fighting dragons. Songs she wrote about her own life. They are gone now. Stolen. Music that wasn’t his, but he took anyway. 15 years of her life taken. She wrote these songs. She sings them, and performs them, but he owns them. Never asking, just taking, without a care in the world. But she won’t stand for this. No. She’s taking back her words. Reclaiming everything he stole.

Swim Tall – Maebry Kraatz

In the big blue ocean
A fish is so small
Surrounded by life
How can it swim tall?

One in trillions of fish
How can it be seen
One tiny fish
What does swimming tall mean?

Flowing like a tide
And riding the waves
Every passing day
The fish shows it’s brave
It conquers the sea
With mighty strength
It pushes on through every length

One little fish
Can make a big ripple
In the big blue ocean
Showing that its confidence can triple

A knight in shining armor
The fish rides its steed
The rolling waves are towers
and its power is decreed

Swimming tall is a roller coaster
Ups and downs and all the way around
Keep your fins high
For you are a star
Unlock your inner wave
And push towards the shore
You are something so great it’s never been seen before!

Us – Juniper Ramirez

she really never knew what hate was
fragments in her effort
soggy skull, dry skin wrapped around a personality
stare at her eyes, parallel to me
soft fingers mismatch her lips
pretty and confused, make it worse
Her body, my museum of life
acceptance a panting puppy
Her protest, repetitive and mortal
rejection an old friend
leave her memory behind
misplaced it a long while ago, even so
a young star won’t be new
lay her head on my pillow
covet your conduction system,
drown her in thick hair
Make her climb her mind
I’ll bathe her and dress her
I’ll hold her in our arms

Communication – Jazalyn Cavazos

“Communication is key”
They always say
“Jaz you need to speak up”
“You need to say how you feel”
“You need to communicate”
Why?
What’s communication though?
What’s the need for communication?
What’s the purpose?
Why must I always communicate?
You communicate when something is wrong
When there is something that needs
To be done, when you need help
But communication does not always have
To be verbal
It can be expressed through body language
Art, music, and many other forms.
It can be used for anything and everything
Communication is sometimes hard you see
But in the very end it’s key
It’s all you need
To make things complete.
Communication
You tell me what it is to you.
