"and the farmer is off fighting a war that he doesn’t belong to/
the thick tweeds have flourished in the pastures" Ahhh I love this transition so much!!!
interesting take on this… this isn’t about legalities. it’s about how the refusal to admit sickness only stains the surrounding world. 18 isn’t more magical than 17, nor any other age. pain carries, just as matter: it cannot be created nor destroyed, but can be settled.
Thank you Amelia! We will definitely turn these into challenges!

/"because I now know that tears can relieve pain
and they're truly a beautiful thing, if you just
look at them
differently"/ So true and really hits hard! I love this poem, and everyone needs to read this, it's so good! Thank you for sharing! :)

"I'd look out beyond the edge, and I don't know what I would see, but I think it would help everything make a bit more sense." Brilliantly expressed. I totally know this feeling, and you helped me pin it down with words. This piece got me both thinking and feeling! Thank you!
Thank you!! <3:)

You are still a blossom.
Not a matter of purity but a legal requirement. 18 is a magic number.
Happy Pride Month!
