Poetry

Chances

Written by Jacob Ibrag

A laugh between two friends.

One means it and the other pretends.

She wants more that what he’s given. God

forbid she ever tells him. ‘What if that’s how

it ends?’ And what if he says yes? Taking

chances. A designed continuation.

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.
