Poetry

Laced

Written by Jacob Ibrag

They say progress is beautiful and

yet we’re progressively splitting. Traveling

in reverse, back to our beginning. They say love

is blind and I don’t think we’ve ever seen better.

Waltzing through each others gates, waking

from our bliss laced shared ignorance.

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.

    Really nice. I would not have come up with “bliss” and “ignorance”. Pretty impressive.

    Jacob, I really like this,
    “waking from our bliss laced shared ignorance.”
    What a great combination of words to share a message.

    Would it not be nice if, once back at the beginning, you two build a solid house of love?
