Spread Joy to the World

Joy, joy, joy!

Spread joy to the world!

Heart of Exhaustion

Because hearing about other people's sadness takes a toll on my heart sometimes, so I created this set.

It breaks my heart to see people in pain,

So much that sometimes it drives me insane.

My heart it breaks, often so,

That I tend to breakdown, it's so hard to let go.

It's hard to carry all of this sadness.

My kindness, my weakness, the root of my madness.

I try to go out, get some fresh air to breathe.

I've heard some stories, you wouldn't believe.

All of the sadness, it makes me so weak.

Often sometimes, that I can't even speak.

My Complex Heart

Because my heart is so complex and sometimes conflicts with my dreams, so I created this set.

Big dreams,

City lights,

Long days,

Sleepless nights...

On these days,

Life seems alright.

Organized Chaos

Because my mind feels like organized chaos, so I created this set.

One piece here,

One piece there,

Puzzle pieces scattered everywhere.

You'll look here,

And you'll look there,

But you'll find there's nothing there....

And if you want to know,

What's inside of mind.

Organized chaos,

Is all you'll find.

Fragile

Because I feel so fragile sometimes, so I created this set.

Don't hurt me 'cause I'm fragile,

Is that too much to ask?

Don't hurt me I might shatter,

Just like a piece of glass.

Rejecting Perfection

Because I'm human and I make mistakes, so I created this set. It's also a poem response set.

@mymaria109 @blue2mato @elliewriter @dreamfantasyfashion @jazzysj @egbooth @alphaboots @runners @forever-21-xo @lululolliepop @fandomcorrupted @leah-r-ramsey @mima12345 @lilibunneh @ealkhaldi @synkopika @runners

#poetryintoart3

Here is my set for @ellyothvhoar's poem:

Gathering my loss

leaving places before I even entered them

missing people I never met

caught between the blur of the past

and the fog of the future

time stands still inside and rushes outside

I'm just a board others pin their problems on

a node of countless meeting and diverging lifelines

a straw imprisoned among needles

lies and truth inseperable, reflecting each other

falling through all grates,

fitting none of the moulds,

only a collection of disjointed pieces

whose life is this?

I don't feel any relation to myself

so, am I just the opposite of everything I seem to be and what others see in me?

am I actor or just spectator?

maybe a wishful illusion in your mind?

My response: Rejecting Perfection poem

I know what it's like,

I understand.

It's hard to be the painting

Of someone else's hand.

They paint me so pretty,

So angelic, like perfection.

But am I really?

You can laugh at that question.

May I paint you a picture?

So real, so true.

You know that I have feelings,

Just like you.

I get mad, I get sad,

And I cry sometimes too.

Sure I am nice,

But that has a lot to do with you.

See, I'm trapped in the bubble --

Full of love which is great.

But this bubble quickly bursts,

At the slightest sign of hate.

They tell me to smile,

Don't frown or be down.

But it's really hard

To wear such a crown.

So paint me pretty and angelic

If you want to.

But remember that I'm human,

Just like you.

Your Kind Words

Because I believe in spreading kindness, so I created this set.

Your kind words,

Lays waste to all the madness.

Your kind words,

Brought me out of my sadness.

~LB

This set was inspired by some of the most beautiful, most amazing, and most sweetest ladies EVER!

I couldn't let these sweet words go to waste ladies! I hope you lovely ladies don't mind! ;)

They helped me come out of the dark. :)

With all my heart,

xLBx

All the world's a stage,

And all the men and women merely players;

They have their exits and their entrances,

And one man in his time plays many parts,

His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant,

Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.

Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel

And shining morning face, creeping like snail

Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,

Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad

Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,

Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,

Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel,

Seeking the bubble reputation

Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,

In fair round belly with good capon lined,

With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,

Full of wise saws and modern instances;

And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts

Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,

With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;

His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide

For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,

Turning again toward childish treble, pipes

And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,

That ends this strange eventful history,

Is second childishness and mere oblivion,

Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

"Phenomenal Woman" by Maya Angelou

This set was inspired by one of my favorite poems:

"Phenomenal Woman" by Maya Angelou

Phenomenal Woman

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.

I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size

But when I start to tell them,

They think I’m telling lies.

I say,

It’s in the reach of my arms,

The span of my hips,

The stride of my step,

The curl of my lips.

I’m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That’s me.

I walk into a room

Just as cool as you please,

And to a man,

The fellows stand or

Fall down on their knees.

Then they swarm around me,

A hive of honey bees.

I say,

It’s the fire in my eyes,

And the flash of my teeth,

The swing in my waist,

And the joy in my feet.

I’m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That’s me.

Men themselves have wondered

What they see in me.

They try so much

But they can’t touch

My inner mystery.

When I try to show them,

They say they still can’t see.

I say,

It’s in the arch of my back,

The sun of my smile,

The ride of my breasts,

The grace of my style.

I’m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That’s me.

Now you understand

Just why my head’s not bowed.

I don’t shout or jump about

Or have to talk real loud.

When you see me passing,

It ought to make you proud.

I say,

It’s in the click of my heels,

The bend of my hair,

the palm of my hand,

The need for my care.

’Cause I’m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That’s me.

"Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou (1st Interp)

This set was inspired by one of my favorite poems:

"Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou

Again, I've labeled it as 1st Interp because I may make another set inspired by this poem.

Still I Rise

You may write me down in history

With your bitter, twisted lies,

You may trod me in the very dirt

But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?

Why are you beset with gloom?

‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells

Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,

With the certainty of tides,

Just like hopes springing high,

Still I’ll rise.

Did you want to see me broken?

Bowed head and lowered eyes?

Shoulders falling down like teardrops.

Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you?

Don’t you take it awful hard

‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines

Diggin’ in my own back yard.

You may shoot me with your words,

You may cut me with your eyes,

You may kill me with your hatefulness,

But still, like air, I’ll rise.

Does my sexiness upset you?

Does it come as a surprise

That I dance like I’ve got diamonds

At the meeting of my thighs?

Out of the huts of history’s shame

I rise

Up from a past that’s rooted in pain

I rise

I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,

Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.

Leaving behind nights of terror and fear

I rise

Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear

I rise

Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,

I am the dream and the hope of the slave.

I rise

I rise.

"Mother to Son" by Langston Hughes (1st Interp)

This set was inspired by another one of my favorite poems:

"Mother to Son" by Langston Hughes

It's labeled "1st Interp" because I'm pretty sure that I will be making another set inspired by this poem.

Mother to Son

Well, son, I’ll tell you:

Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.

It’s had tacks in it,

And splinters,

And boards torn up,

And places with no carpet on the floor—

Bare.

But all the time

I’se been a-climbin’ on,

And reachin’ landin’s,

And turnin’ corners,

And sometimes goin’ in the dark

Where there ain’t been no light.

So boy, don’t you turn back.

Don’t you set down on the steps

’Cause you finds it’s kinder hard.

Don’t you fall now—

For I’se still goin’, honey,

I’se still climbin’,

And life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.

"I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth

This set was inspired by one of my favorite poems:

"I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the milky way,

They stretched in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,

Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they

Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

A poet could not but be gay,

In such a jocund company:

I gazed—and gazed—but little thought

What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the daffodils.
