It's Gonna Be Okay
Those brooding eyes shattered her composurePity broke her fragile exterior
For he had resigned as her soldier
Her hands of hope warrior
Medication eases but never cures
So I took the road less traveled by
Before this sickness soon matures
And the rhythm of my life goes on standby
Does disease die with its host?
What if the host strangles the disease?
Death with dignity deserves a toast
Because finally Ill feel at ease
He had not resigned as her soldier
Her hands of hope warrior
He knows I am this bodies only owner
This is where I depart to euphoria

It's Gonna Be Okay
PoetTheresa Little
The human body is both fragile and resilient. The mind's ability to be both hopeful and determined even in the face of likely demise, is a defining characteristic of the human condition. This poem does a great job of conveying these ideas effectively. Well written.
This poem was easy to follow. I can see your point clearly. Well done!
Good
Lovely
Well done. I like your rhyming!
I really love this poem. But I find the change between first and third person a bit jarring.
Very clear and direct piece of work, perfectly understandable. I really liked this one!!
A temporary habitat, We crave to keep, But soon enough, We'll leave behind.
This poem is a powerful exploration of internal conflict, illness, and the struggle for autonomy in the face of suffering. The opening lines, "Those brooding eyes shattered her composure / Pity broke her fragile exterior," immediately set a somber tone, describing the emotional toll that another's gaze—or perhaps the expectations of others—can have on someone experiencing pain. The character feels exposed and vulnerable, as if their internal world is being breached by external pity.
The host, hosts until its end times is near as it crumbles back to its state. Nicely penned!
Clear, direct composition results in a strongly worded poem! Nice job!
This is a very emotionally evocative poem I loved it

I really love this poem
I love your pacing, especially in the last stanza! As well, it is extremely emotionally strong. I love it.
I understood what you wrote though I can't say I loved the poem itself. That's just me though.
Sounds like a battle of depression and finding hope in another person or perhaps religion. The "her hands of hope warrior" bit confused me a little. Is that supposed to by hyphenated? Good work. Keep at it.
I like the poem it’s so true
A sad one
Right I wish I could travel there sometimes lol but you did a real good job I really enjoyed that poem nice work.
Amazing. Filled with depth and emotion. Great work!
