Poetry

Resting

Written by Jacob Ibrag

Dry blood rests on the inside of

her lip. She should be worried, afraid of

what comes next. And yet she stands in the

presence of nature, a beings most complicated

relationship. ‘In the end, we’ll begin again.’ A

leaf blows in the gale, contemplating

its connecting destination.

Over the years Eyes + Words has turned into a wonderful budding family of over fifteen thousand people across all platforms. It’s surreal and humbling to know that the art of poetry and story is alive and thriving. That being said, I hope that the creation of the Eyes + Words Writers Group serves as a vehicle and launch pad to help and support writers and the aspiring ones to keep manifesting words that many out there are searching for everyday. So go on and contribute, lets elevate together. Everyone is encouraged to share their experiences with anything involving writing.

  4. We’re all in our own ways, fearing of the uncertainties of our futures, and the important thing is not to back down in the face of that fear, and just keep marching on bravely.
