Cindy Green wrote a new post, Safe One 1 month, 2 weeks ago
If I were to make a list
of the best feelings I know,
the ones that smell of safety
and taste of tenderness
and call me with loving lungs,
I would write:
being held in small, strong arms
and knowing I am […]

Unread texts swiped across my screen.
I’d never call it personal—
I’ve left him on read for a week,
and I don’t reply to her as quickly as I used to.
I hear the ding,
I watch it flash,
and for a few fleetin […]

How beautiful.

This poem is really good xD

This spoke to me on a personal level 😭

Wow…

“but I’ve taken the letters of privilege
and taught them to spell burden.”
Girl. Say it louder for the people in the back. What a beautiful way to capture something that so many people feel and validating emotions that will make so many people feel understood. Great job!
-
Oh gosh, Cindy. I hadn’t read this poem of yours before, but man, did it speak to me!

To the white and yellow wildflower
sitting next to me in the grass,
you look lonely.
You are the only one of your kind in all the field,
and I understand how much that aches.
There are so many trees to shade […]

*blinks rapidly* Wow. That was precious, and I don’t think poetry has ever gotten so close to making me cry. Thank you, dear extroverted one.
-
This was beautiful to read! Thank you so much Cindy! It warmed my enfp soul. 💕
-
Gosh, this <333
-
WOW. Amazing. Breathtaking. Sooo relatable!
This touched me in two different ways, because sometimes I can straddle loud and soft. For me, the lines are blurred, and sometimes I can’t exactly grasp which one I am. But this… this was lovely.
-
And now I’m going to cry! *sniffles* ❤️ My little, extroverted heart relates to this so well.
-
Ahh! Cindy, I love this poem so much!! <3 It make my heart happy. 🙂
-
CINDY. How can you write such beautiful words with such beautiful purpose?? This is perfection. It touched my soul. <3
-
Cindy, this is GORGEOUS! Thank you so, so much, for writing this for us. For everyone you knew and didn’t know needed it. For me.
-
Oh, man. This is so awesome and beautiful I could read it a hundred times and still cry. Thanks so much for appreciating the extroverts.
-
Wow. I was not expecting for that to hit so hard. My little sister is an extrovert, and the rest of my family are introverts like me. I wish she was old enough to read this poem.
You almost made me cry. That simply doesn’t happen when I read poetry.
Thank you so much.
-
Ahhhhh I LOVED this!!
-
Ack, my heart. *sniffs* ❤️ *goes to hug all my extroverted ones*

Tornado winds raged when I was here last.
Your fingers ran through my hair

the strands the storm had tangled.
I wondered how long before I felt that safety again.
I left that home,
