This is a link to an amazing poem by the spoken word poet Alysia Harris. This a perfect representation of how raw and gritty poetry can be. So relatable in the vivid descriptions and precisely worded tear-jerking emotions. Check out her other poems; That girl, and Death Poem, which also showcase her amazing work. Please enjoy.

" And just like that we were over. Easy, I half laughed half cried, didn't know if it was the jet lag or if i had just gotten used to sleeping in late and calling you mine."

The link above will take you on a journey. Shane Koyczan is a talented poet, who has a knack for telling stories. He can bring tears to your eyes, laughter to your belly and love to your heart. I'll let the poem speak for it self.

"no symphony of nature swelling to crescendos, as if we bent halo’s into melodies that could keep rhythm with the way our hearts beat. so we must meet silence with the same level of noise that the parents of dying nine year old boys make when they take liberties in talking with heaven."
