Challenge
Write a poetic interpretation of your greatest fear.
It may be of depression, inner demons, or simple daily things you find yourself afraid of.
karagranholm in Poetry & Free Verse

Death

I know that it's unavoidable

and that one day it will come.

It scares me that it's unforeseeable

and it leaves me feeling glum.

One day when I least expect it

he'll come knocking on my door.

He comes in with no permit

and leaves behind a mess of horror.

Maybe I'll be ready to go

or maybe I'll want to stay.

There's no way to know

until I get to that day.

I only fear a thing that's rather grim

and his name is Death.

I will always fear him

until my very last breath.

Challenge
Define love in your own words.
How would you describe love to someone that's never heard of it?

What is love?

Love is when you can sit in an empty room with someone and still have the time of your lives.

Challenge
Write a short love poem. The catch is that the first sentence must have seven words, and the following sentences should countdown until you have only one word for the last sentence. Basically 7 words, then 6, then 5, etc.
Love comes in numbers.
karagranholm in Micropoetry

Love

Before you, I'd never felt this way

You showed me what love is

in more ways than one.

One thing I want

every single day

is simply

you.
