For Them, For Us

Regardless the talent 
you may witness 
none like the Cosmos 
Its a whole new world 
you may witness 
its a whole new planet 
based on raw talent 
shooting stars of poets 
all landing together 
in the exact same place 
for others to enjoy 
for others to be able to read
with good intentions 
knowing knowledge is power 
and together we all can 
believe in one another 
through the ability 
to share our stories willingly 
knowing it could 
quite possibly 
be the reason 
Making the difference
for someone 
who had no clue 
they are not the only one 
to go through
the unbelievable 
WE ALL MUST OVERCOME 
together we can 
together we will 
We must move forward 
regardless the climb 
or pitch of the hill 
regardless the height 
of the mountain 
We must prevail 
and set sail 
to calmer waters
never willing to fail 
because we all know 
WE DESERVE WAY BETTER 
so cheers to all the heroes 
also known as authors 
keep writing and fighting 
protecting the readers 
that without our words 
could easily become 
VICTIMS

SUPERB Rob, you went straight into the heart of Cosmo here I feel. I loved the fluidity and how you capitalised some of the lines, like a chant. Your words make us all feel empowered as a whole, a united front of poets all leaning on one another. All shinning brighter for having each other. I LOVE this so much x
