december 7, 2024 โ childhood dwellings
the leaves have turned brown
the world has quieted down
icy winds seep through our fingers
biting cold that sleeps and lingers
that weightless checkered blanket
wilted flowers basking in the sunset
that empty swing swaying
childish laughter keeps ringing
we cried and laughed
through times dark or daft
all good things come and go
naive promises of "i love you so"
as we carved our names in the rough bark
and vowed to protect eachother's heart
your arms became a home
and i became your own
even as time is not as forgiving
as when we were kids and simply living
the sea will guide us to our fated shores
tides sweeping sands of long-past wars
as the stars witness our beginning and end
the best in the world, my only friend
those handheld cracks in the tree
will always know it was you and me

november 7, 2024 โ love of mine
you know i'd love to stay the same
you know there's nothing left to say
neither of us stand at fault
yet this is the price we pay
maybe in another life
we wouldn't have this strife
free from the guilt
and yearnings fullfilled
you deserve someone who'll stay
through the good and the bad
and i'm sorry it couldn't be me
despite what we had
but i deserve someone too
to make the long run with me
not run me through
happy to love all i'm yet to be
no, you don't need me
if you did, i would not have scars
no, you aren't sorry
if you were, i wouldn't have to count
i think it's time to face our truth
heal and forgive what remains of our youth
yes, i loved you
but no love of mine will heal you

Hello, I hope you are well๐น
I am Hazem Mahmoud Hamada, 44 years old, a Palestinian man, from Gaza. I am seeking to save my family of 6 members from the hell of war by moving to a safe place until the ugly war ends.Our suffering began on October 14, 2023, when my family was forcibly displaced from north to south in a life- threatening situation. As a result, our homes were completely destroyed and demolished, and thus our business went to waste. There was nothing left as a source of livelihood. There are no shelters to shelter us or a source of livelihood to live on.
Your support is our only hope for survival after losing everything.
We hope you will continue to support us by donating or sharing to help save and rebuild our lives. Every contribution is important and greatly appreciated
Our campaign is verified by Gaza Vetters

july 12, 2024โ10 years and forever
you're making dinner, i'm sat on the counter
with my quiet music playing on the speaker
wet hair sticking to my neck and i'm talking about my day
you wait for me to finish and i'll wait for you to say
little quips and jokes with a quiet smile
i stare while you laugh for a little while
the hot pot steams and i get the plates
you plate the food and i sit and wait
sprinkling soda fizz and dim-lit rooms
our stained couch with bass-powered booms
really shitty movie, the bright tv display
i laugh as you squint your eyes in dismay
you fall asleep and i wash the dishes
ten years ago, dreams were only wishes
ten years from now, we'll earn riches
right now, we heal from our stitches
the house is small and the table is too
my heart feels home, right here with you
i'll tell you a secret, just between us two
for the rest of my life, i'll keep loving you

Edit Note: I'm really amazed by how much love this post got. Guess it just shows we're all in the same boat. I do have other humorous writing memes on this tumblr under the same tag, if you're interested. Never give up writing! โค๏ธ
Edit Note 2: I can't believe this has reached 10000 notes. Been on tumblr for almost ten years (different account) and nothing like this has ever happened before. Thank you! ๐
april 20, 2024 โ secret garden language
im in the hospital in a waiting room
my thighs are sweating, the air hot and stuffy
its too early in the morning to feel like noon
thoughts of you are the only thing keeping me steady
my music flows smokey, the album's nice
messy poetry, paradox hearts & minds
weeds on my back, sick of putting you first
its ok to love him more, my heart's seen worse
i hope the 6 year old garden was fun
the fruits of your seed and spring has begun
so for the first time in forever
abatinas and cyclamens bloom in my weather
and when winter comes, what will you do?
will another bloodthirsty creature welcome you too?
will you drain them of life and trick them like a fool?
goodluck on the run, my laugh's one haunting ghoul

april 6, 2024 โ situationship
are we still friends?
were we more?
when all that's begun has come an end
will everything be back to the way it was before?
and my soul hates everything about you
doesn't mean my heart can't miss you
so when you're gone and i'm through
i'll pretend to move on too
oh, brought to a stop and then what?
i'm faced with a paradoxical thought
childhood memories are soulful wealth
how do i tune silence out with itself?
but i knew it then, it was our last day
see it in your eyes, "sorry it had to end today"
i shake my head, smile wide and say
"it's okay, no hard feelings anyway"
despite everything back then
when i pick up my paper and pen
my mind drifts to you, sweetest bullet bitten
and i'll write the messages i can't send

april 1, 2024 โ luna
oh, luna, tell me so
do you love me enough to let me go?
if you're the moon and i'm the sun
don't you think i'm better off alone?
oh, luna, i'm not the only star you'll find
rigil's brighter and toliman's one of a kind
being good is different from perfect
don't settle, consider every aspect
when i said you were the best thing to happen to me
i actually meant that only you ever stole my need to be free
oh, luna, i hope you'll understand
that going with you is to forget me
but being me won't stop my heart
from knowing we were written in the stars
and how i loved you from the start
always and forever, from here and afar

march 29, 2024 โ not enough
the shower i took tonight was cold
thought of the words you said the other day
the way you said it still makes me fold
you felt what i did, had no more to say
i don't like thinking about it much
easily makes me cry and such
i know the years are good enough
but you know you can't blame me for not acting tough
and i'd like to teach this one day
making the most of something means
you'll never get enough of it
so bittersweet feeling this way
you're always gonna miss every little bit
and i hope that in another reality
we'd never have to live through calamity
palms could breathe without fatality
and you'd smile without the distance i see
โ reddestofscarves, 11:46pm
febuary 17, 2024 โ just for tonight
my curtains are closed
writing down poems i could compose
the music is slow, we're going with the flow
and i can't help but ask "what are you thinking?"
"nothing," you say, but i know things aren't easy that way
but i'll let it be, i can wait, it's okay
we don't have to talk about it
as long as you stay, we can forget about it
sometimes i still get sick
anxiety's a blood sucking tick
i say something stupid and you say life's a dick
and for a month, we'll do anything but stick
so tired of trying to be
trying to get make it in life just to be free
feeling and fearing things we can't see
why can't we be just you and me?
but until then, i'll let the silence envelop
the noise outside makes your ears swell up
so we'll make a place to dry your tears
and even just for tonight, you can let go of your fears

december 15, 2024 โ she-doom
she's a gift from god, she's gifted with a future
she loves science and doesn't understand how to feel heard
she'll love without reason and betray her own slaughter
and she'll always hate being compared to her own father
but time will always tell, it's a curse of mankind
to make the same mistakes and watch it rewind
but she's a woman so maybe life will spare mercy
she doesn't yet know adam is His favorite progeny
and if you ever forget why you had her
she'll cry herself to sleep at night and harbor the same laughter
cause she's the one who bears your burdens and seeks your contentment
and she's born of your love and grown on your resentment
no matter what she does, shes trapped
inescapable are your hands that attacked
growing old to find comfort in men that touch
in states of her mind she refutes to such
she'll end up like you, scared and alone
gleaming knife in skin and bone
or maybe a rope and chair to a ceiling of stone
and she'll always miss the warmth of home
โ reddestofscarves, 8:32 pm
i wish to kiss you
in the heart you will never let me know.

febuary 3, 2024 โ night time is a past-time
darling, the moon and stars know your name
every night i sing about it with shame
and every sonnet i write is the same
will you ever forgive me again?
in the dark of night, these terrors lie
creepies that crawl and bats that fly
something i can't face, in the clouds i'm still high
'cause my greatest fear is saying goodbye
but i used to bike in this neighbourhood of mine
lately all that's passed the streets is time
so it goes and the churchbells chime
i'll have to accept i'm out your light of lime
moon's not out tonight, maybe i'll be fine
maybe this time i won't dream you're mine
moon's not out tonight, maybe i'll be fine
maybe this time i won't dream you're mine

did jesus, in his mortal body and all-knowingness, ever feel crucified by his own followers' dedication?
how deserving was i to be faced with the decision of drowning in my deep-seeded altruism or in my unconditional adoration?
- reddestofscarves, 12:36am on january 27, 2024
there is a hole in my heart
and it's shaped like you.
- reddestofscarves, 9:33am on january 20, 2024
and even if i was a cloud
if it meant i'd be the only thing you'd ever touch.

december 23, 2023 โ holy
it was easier to believe
in tales of adam and eve
even though i could never find
the god they said was so kind
i'd grown used to it all
the gentle hoax the church befalled
a blind-faith religion or a cult of sacrifice
either way, it served only to pacify
so when you spoke the illicit truth
that you loved me despite my being a sleuth
you forgave the sins that were not mine to repent
and every dime, for you i'd spent
you showed me the truth of love
and it felt holier than any angel from above
