Poetry
Welcome to the Poetry section! It is here that we will be expressing our innermost thoughts and emotions through poetry, so do find your cosy spot and nestle in to read what's here.
Most of the poetry here is written by our team of writers, but we encourage and welcome poetry written by fellow readers. If you wish to submit any works, email yuppadotcom@gmail.com or message the Facebook page @YuppaBlog - and you don't even have to name reveal your name in your submission!
Quick disclaimer: a lot of the poetry displayed here conveys private and personal thoughts that you may not understand or agree with. However, here at Yuppa, we promote a safe space for tolerance and equality, and we ask that you treat the poetry/poets with such respect.
But now that that's out of the way, here are the poems!

Ash's Poetry Collection
"May you find comfort in my lies
and someday
we shall find freedom in truth."
C.J.'s Poetry Collection
"It's the only one that
has seen me at my worst
It's the same sad eyes that
look lovingly back at me
It's the same puffy lips that
speak those sweet words
It tells me I'll be ok"
Eboni's Poetry Collection
"A deadly cocktail.
An enabled behaviour.
A ticking time bomb."
Micheál's Poetry Collection
"The mist approaches, whispering softly, like a spirit’s breath,
And the stones stand tall around me, those who cheated death."
Featured Writers' Poetry Collection
"I'll pour
my heart
or a shrug
I'll perform instead"
