Become an Emerald Author
We just released our new monetization features with the soft launch of our paid subscription Portal, The Emerald Lounge. So, authors in the lounge can have paid subscribers for their content, be it poems, stories, or books, you know, the works you've been holding back until it's ready to shine like it should. Become an Emerald author by submitting your best work, or work you like. If you think you can out-drink, or even hang until closing time with Hemingway or Hank, we want to meet you. Accepted authors will receive a code for "Become an Emerald Author," which you will find in your settings. Go get it.

Peace in Pieces

At the sight of your beauty

My words get stolen

At the touch of your hand

My head starts smoking

At the sound of your voice

My spirit gets broken

When I see you smile

My chest gets swollen

Like it’s gonna burst

From all these emotions

I can’t help the feelings you’ve awoken

When we got separated

I started choking

I couldn’t make any sounds

Nor commotions

Thinking about you is just so provoking

But to be honest

That’s what keeps me going

It’s irritating to not be knowing

Because of the emotions

That you not showing

I locked myself up

While you were outgoing

The feeling in my chest

Everyday it’s been growing

My words are a river

Cause of the way they’re flowing

Compared to your old self

You heart has been frozen

Like you walked through a blizzard

That never stops snowing

I know if I get it

I won’t stop the going

If you say no

On the ground I’ll be rolling

I’m liking your attitude

You’re not controlling

I can’t take it

But I gotta reap what I was sowing

I keep losing shit

Like I got broken colon

And my heart is not a single piece

So can somebody help me please?

I’m just tryna find my mind some peace
