I dunno. My debut poem.
My poetry can be rather dark and not for the white-washed eyes.
So if anyone know of a “free-minded” poetry/pros/stories site for authors, please notify me thank you.

BANG
To watch a sunrise
And then see it set
In this harried life
It’s as good as it gets
God must know
The pleasure it bestows
To all His children
He created here below.
There are many
Who say
There’s no God
To whom we do pray
And without Him
Our surroundings
Would be here anyway,
Because
Worlds collided
There was a big bang
And from the din
And confusion
This wonderment sprang.
How utterly ridiculous
It [...]

Can you hear my voice calling in the night
Do you see the tears I cry till the morning’s light
I long to tell you all that is in my heart
Yet I fear I don’t know where to start
And so I sit back as you walk on by
Never saying a word or even try
I watch you walk [...]

We are told
Earth is eons old.
But
The world
As we know it is
Just about through.
Fossil fuels
Are doing it in
Earths atmosphere
Is growing thin.
Smog and green house gasses
are the reason why
However, cures are rather shy.
Temperatures on the rise
Antarcticas glaciers
On the demise.
Polar bears
Disappearing fast
Without ice
They cannot last.
The question asked
What to do
Without world’s intervention
There is no clue

She pulled herself out of the water, nails digging into the soggy riverbank, choking on weeds and coughing up the muck from the riverbed. She lay still for a while, long wet tendrils of her dark hair straggling across her face, her fingers embedded into the moss and leaves beneath her. Her jeans, heavy with [...]

Is it enough
that were young and strong..
Turning and spinning..
Trying not to fall.
Looking at wisdom written on the wall.
Closing our eyes seeing it all.
Hold on it’s gonna be
a long flight..
If we think we have nothing but might.
We put on the silent smile
Hoping to shout…
A word
pronounced-
Without.
The many tears
falling all around you for all those years.
Is it enough [...]

Fabricated with lies they told us a story
Excused without reason, justified without explanation
Brainwashed we stood – never thought it was a lie
And we listened eagerly – never read between the lines
Then they triumph over their victory
Fireworks, joy, excitement and celebration
But we only saw through our eyes
Never Asked, never questioned, never thought with our minds

we both met each other
searching for the comfort of another
your eyes full of tears
my heart full of fears
we told each other our stories
filling each moment with memories
we tried to shed our path with light
promising not to tell white lies
