Poetry
“The Whispers of my Heart”
by Genesis Jetter
Featured in Heartlines Issue 5
There lies the whispers of my heart
Born through the joys of the world
Stories of the love untold
My heart racing through my words
Imagination coming to life inside of a repurposed page
“The Song of Writers”
by Ciara Lieby
Featured in Heartlines Issue 5
I am the writer, the pen that meets the page
The ink forming letters slowly on the paper
Who am I? Why would I have the right to be another voice singing throughout the world?
Who am I? Why am I the scribbles on the page?
The beauty in America as I sing my song
“Sense”
by Emma McLarin
Featured in Heartlines Issue 5
Can you feel?
The white sun on your skin
A light on your face
Casting shadows on your detail
Wrinkled skin and bone,
Now dust, once ever bone
“Embrace”
by Gemma Rowe
Featured in Heartlines Issue 5
Sometimes,
When the sky is dark, clouded
I can’t make out the voice in my head
From the buzz crickets outside,
I put my hand to my chest
Listening to my heart.
