The Need

Written by Jacob Ibrag

Dirty surface below their feet.

She takes out the vacuum and starts her

routine. Rolling up the carpet, she finds a key.

A plastic card, room four twenty three. ‘He said

it was over, that there was only me.’ He said

what she wanted, a need to believe.

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.
