Doing a little #PoetrySwap with some of my amazing badass friends and look what just arrived today. The insane, gorgeous, often hilarious words of the wicked talented @j.warren.welch I am so stoked to get these pieces into a badass collage and up on my wall. God it's good to call these artists my friends. You guys blow my mind. Jeff, this is so awesome. #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity #writer #writerscommunity #poetsofinstagram #igpoets #indiepoet #poeticjustic #poetryisnotdead #friends #art #artists #artswap #photooftheday #fangirl #badass #thankful I wrote this last year for my column on @femininecollective and after watching the video this morning, the one where Philando Castile's daughter and girlfriend are in the back of the police car after just witnessing a police officer shoot him to death, my heart is heavy again. I know that my words don't help the atrocities in this world, but writing them helps me process my feelings a bit.

Lyric was only two years old and she tried to hold on with the help of machines, but the family got the news that sweet Lyric wasn't going to make it and they had to make the hardest decision of their lives by allowing her to go peacefully and shutting off the machines. When I wrote this for Gina she wasn't ready for it so I changed the word 'Lyric' to song and posted that way. Gina posted the original today and said she was ready, I hear her Nicole and I'm ready" so here it is for Gina and for Lyric aka Chunka 🖤 with so much love . "On those sleepless nights when everything but your broken heart is still, listen. There is music in the wind and the gentle breeze carries your Lyric home" #nicolelyons ##nicolelyonspoetry #nicolelyonsquotes #poem #poetrycommunity #poetsofinstagram #igpoets #instapoet #indiepoet #canadianpoet #kamloopspoet #remember #neverforget #love #life #loss #healing #happiness #throwback #qotd #quote #quoteoftheday #wordporn #wordsmith #withlove O Negative From my book #Hush Grab your copy from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Chapters Indigo #nicolelyons #nicolelyonspoetry #nicolelyonsquotes #poetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryquote #poetrycommunity #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #igpoets #indiepoet #instapoet #canadianpoet #kamloopspoet #wordporn #wordsmith #qotd #quote #quoteoftheday #writer #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #bookstagram #love #roses #soul I have been covered in easy kisses from uneasy lips and I know I smell weary again. #nicolelyons #nicolelyonspoetry #nicolelyonsquotes #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetryisnotdead #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #igpoets #indiepoet #instapoet #canadianpoet #kamloopspoet #wordporn #wordsmith #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #writer #qotd #quote #quotes #quoteoftheday #darkpoetry #kiss #love #hush An excerpt from Sticky Sour Dancing #nicolelyons #nicolelyonspoetry #nicolelyonsquotes #poem #poetry #poetryquote #poetrycommunity #poetryisnotdead #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #igpoets #instapoet #indiepoet #canadianpoet #kamloopspoet #wordporn #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #writer #wordsmith #love #darkpoetry #quote #quoteoftheday #hush
