ywp is a movement of poets

a community of fools

given the power to combine words

and a pen

that can write so much meaning

in just two, or three, or millions of words,

and sometimes, there aren't enough

words to express the feelings hidden down

deep inside ourselves, about this world,

but somehow all of us fools 

can come together and say

all the words the people need to 

hear.

    The footsteps I take are whispers;

    No one can hear them but me.

     

    But you still listen to my heartbeat

    to throw it in the hamper

    and instead it's on the carpet floor.

     

    And it's there next time

    I'm crying on the floor;

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,
