Poetry Submissions, to cB news Options

[sadolakced acid]

hello poets!

the cB newspaper (letter, whatever) is looking to feature a poem (or two) every issue.

so: if you want us to consider your poem for featuring please:

1. Post your poem(s) in this thread
2. Post a link to the thread with your poem(s) (if you didn't make a thread already for your poem, then just say no thread)

please, no comments - if you wish to comment, click on the link to that poem.

please note that we are cannot feature every poem, and we may not be featuring the best poem; we also consider the emotion that the poem evokes, and if it fits with our publication. Poems submitted will always remain in consideration.

As the Heavens Cry

I listen to the tears fall from your eyes
This distance between us I greatly despise
I want to hold you and make it feel right
But the days ahead, for us, are not looking very bright
You asked me tonight if I ever cry
I didn't know how to tell you each moment I die
Knowing that it can never be
Knowing I'll never get to say "It's just you and me"
I told you I'd be there to wipe away every tear
It's difficult to do that when I'm trapped away here
I listen closely as the heavens cry
I cannot seem to stop asking myself why
Why can't I make her happiness last forever?
Why do they deny us ever being together?
I have such a passion to make all your dreams come true
All I want from everything is the best for you
Even if the best for you does not include me
Your happiness and beautiful smile forever I wish to see
