I packed your things in a bag 

in my closet, so I’ll be prepared for goodbye. 

It’s coming. 

I can feel it, 

but this time, I don’t know 

who it’s coming from.

Echoes of You

Fudge stripe cookies and Snickers coffee creamer

I hope you’ll miss me the way I miss you now.

15 multi-genre creative writing prompts

Finding quality creative writing prompts that aren’t repeated across multiple sources can be difficult. I feel like I find the same concepts worded just a bit differently on every list of prompts I look for when I’m searching for myself. Realistically, how beneficial are all those lists of 100 or more prompts if half of the prompts make every single list, right?

I loved you like an earthworm loves the rain

but summer showers turned to sunbeams

and burned me up alive

Ode to COVID-19 in the United States

nocturnal daydreams

Excerpt: I'll kick your ass if you cough / into your hand one more time

[kourtneylynn]

I have nightmares of you when I sleep on my left side, like your fingerprints have etched their way into muscle memory.

We pass each other

like strangers or ghosts

floating through different planes

     - we used to say ‘hello’

I wrote a poem inspired by Halsey’s latest album.
