You’re fine

Wake up act as if nothing happened last night
Stop crying you’re fine

Hide the pain behind a smile to try to ease it for a while
Stop Crying you’re fine

You need to be brave for others you need to support each other you have to stay strong or the others will start to fall
They’re depending on you you’re fine

You can’t get those hurtful words out of your mind but you have to stop crying and act like you’re fine





Also I don't fully understand NaPo can someone please tell me what it is about all I know right now is that I need to write poems or something like that

hey! great poem up there :)
just information- you have one topic for the whole entire month, so you might want to edit the topic and create a title for the whole thread (you can do this by going to the bottom of the first post and clicking the button with the pencil on it.)
thread titles can be anything you want- they vary from "the peace and simplicity of the color green" to "the art of living" to "every window in san fransico has a view of alcatraz". some people write poems that go along with the name of their topic. let me know if you have more questions or if you're confused!

love ya

Hello! I would be happy to help explain!
Spoiler

What is NaPo?
So as you may know Napo is national poetry month. It is a writing challenge where you write a poem everyday of the month of April. But here on yws we do things a little differently.

You can set any goal for yourself you want. But we give out badges for 15 poems, 30 poems, and a poem everyday, for every user that has posted their poems in a NaPo thread.

how to participate
I see you have posted your NaPo thread here which is great! Though you might think about changing the title. You can have a name for your thread, or you can just say something like "capybaras NaPo 2024" or whatever you want. You change titles by editing your first post and changing the words in the subject.

themes
On themes, there is no right answer. But when we talk about themes for napo threads we usually mean the over arching message we want to send with each of our poems. Pondering a part of life, reviewing your last, dreaming about the future. Really whatever you want! It's all up to you! But you also don't need one at all! My past two napos I never had a theme I just wrote what ideas came to me!

To find more information about NaPo you can looker her at the NaPo FAQ

It you have any more questions feel free to PM me! If you want to clear up this thread feel free to delete this post!
that the powerful play goes on
And you may contribute a verse


If you ever need to talk I am here for you<3

You never want to say goodbye
You never want to watch them die
But it’s okay to cry
Your heart is full of woe
Your heart is full of misery
You’re probably thinking why did you leave me
You know everyone has a time
You know everyone has a date with fate
But you’re wondering why it had to be today
Your heart is broken beyond words
You’ve cried a sea of tears
You are drowning in your fears
You can’t bear to think of going on without them
But everyone must say goodbye
You don’t have to act like everything’s fine
Let your emotions loose because it’s okay to cry

I stand here alone
All on my own
No one by my side
No one to confide in
No one to love me
No home to stay
I’ll just have to hope that things get better soon
Or I will meet certain doom
Fate is nigh
These aren’t high times these are hard times
I’ll just have to hope things lighten up
I’ll have to hope that hope is enough

Is this reality or just merely a dream
Everything is perfect here
Not a sigh not a tear
Finally Escape
No more heartbreak
But it’s all fake
It’s just a dream
Why Don’t dreams come true
Will anyone ever love you?
Be brave be strong
Hang on a little longer
Fight a little stronger
But you’re weak
You have no energy left in you
But you can’t let your fright blind your sight
You can’t back down you have to fight
(Wrote this yesterday submitted to the entry thread but forgot to submit it here 💀)

Dogs oh how I love them
Dogs so many of them
Dogs some big some small
Dogs I love them all
Some are furry
Some aren't
Still I love them with all my heart
Some are big
Some are small
I don't care I love them all

Cats
Cats are so cute
Cats are so fat
That is why I love cats
Some like to snuggle
Some don’t
Some will be full of energy
Others won’t
Some have patterns exotic
Others they don’t got it
Still whether big or small skinny or fat
I love cats

your last two poems were just *chefs kiss* although tbh I love cats more >:]

I really like your writing style! your poems are very direct and have a strong meter. Especially with the repetition (like how you repeated "cats" or "dogs" over and over, but it wasn't very tedious to read, which is great.
they told me to never give up on my dreams.

so i took another nap
