An Anthology of Poems Inspired by The Strawberry Girl’s Promise

Step into the world of The Strawberry Queen, where the whispers of the earth blend with the magic of love and promise. This anthology, Songs of the Strawberry Queen, is a collection of poems that celebrate the enchantment, heartache, and wonder found within the world of strawberries, dreams, and timeless promises.

Each poem in this collection is a tribute to the journey of Maribelle, the Strawberry Queen, whose tale of magic, healing, and transformation is told through every delicate verse. From the first seed planted in the fertile soil of Thaloria to the sweet fruits that grow in the hearts of all who encounter her legend, these poems speak to the beauty of nature, the power of connection, and the promise that all things—like strawberries—ripen in their own time.

In these pages, you’ll find an array of heartfelt reflections, magical dreams, and bittersweet moments, woven together to create an enchanting tapestry of words that will linger long after the final line.

Let's stop playing games

Watching as it goes up in flames

You standing there

I'm over here

Our eyes connect

In yours I see a speck

Of something so unknown

Something as heavy as stone

Our life filled with photo frames

And other people's names

Each of us has our own

But it's your heart that I want to know

Her hand in yours

His hand around my waist

My heart is making a tour

Entering that dangerous space

Between right and wrong

The two of us known eachother for so long

Tell me how can this be

Why didn't your heart choose me

All those years ago when both us were single

Why didn't the spark between us lit a flame

A sort of kindle

My heart should have known your name

What if we tell them goodbye

I don't want to lie

Not to myself and not to him, but it's you I want

In my slumber it's your name I chant

How did it get this far

My head and heart is in the middle of a war

Like a wildfire burning a path

Thinking about doing something that I shouldn't have

Do we burn the lives we built to ashes

Seeing the flashes

Of the memories of me and him, you and her,

We could never go there

Breaking the eye contact

My heart just barely intact

I don't want to go closer to you

Afraid of what we would do

Just wanting to touch you once, feeling your lips on mine

Shaking the thoughts out of my head, it's a damn crime

To be an arsonist and light our lives on fire

We simply need to push these feelings down and retire

I can't just sit and watch it burn

So I will return

To holding him, while you kiss her

Watching this event occur

There will be no burning flames

As we stay with the people in our photo frames.

This series is a compilation of love letters I have written for my boyfriend over the past few months. I hope you enjoy it, and remember, someday, you'll find your "one" too. :)

Simply a compilation of poems I've written and will write in the future. The title means "Poems by a decaying mind" in Latin. I rated it PG because of mentions of suicide and mental illness, though I highly doubt any children would be reading this. Most of these poems are in English, but there are a few in German and sometimes one or more lines are in either Latin or Hungarian. Have fun ;)

This is a place where I put some of the poems I’ve written. Poems about surviving this terrible world, about finding ways to defy fate and defy injustice, and about creating a new world.

"Melancholic and Other Poems" is a powerful debut collection by Nicholas Kyle Edwards that invites readers into a profound exploration of the complexities of mental health, particularly as experienced by adolescents. Through a strikingly unique freestyle form, this collection consists of twelve thought-provoking pieces that delve into themes of despair, vulnerability, and the human condition.

This collection is not just a reflection on pain; it is a journey towards understanding and acceptance. Each piece serves as a mirror, allowing readers to confront their own experiences while finding solace in shared emotion. Whether through poignant imagery or evocative prose, Edwards's work compels us to confront the delicate balance of light and darkness within us all.​​​​​​​Exciting News! My book, Melancholic and Other Poems, is now published and available for purchase! ♡You can get your copy here: nicholaskyleedwards.comAvailable for purchase on Amazon (PAPERBACK), Kindle (EBOOK), Nook (EBOOK), Apple (EBOOK), Kobo (EBOOK), and more! ♡

Introverts are heavy thinkers, and even though they are very silent, they think within themselves about the world they live in. This book is about the problems, issues, and lifestyle introverts may suffer from.
