Fragile thoughts that never fade
Alight upon mind’s shadowed nooks
Lingering ghosts tightening grip
Longing closure’s comforting embrace
Openly flawed thy crippled soul
Undying wanderer ever aches
Torn in two by unattainable dreams

New Thoreau Quarterly + Word of Chen
Yay!
At the suggestion of AprilONeilsTickler (https://www.deviantart.com/apriloneilstickler) in a comment on my The Ocean poem; I sent 7 of my poems to an e-zine for them to publish anywhere from 0 to 5 of them in their first issue... And they picked 4 of the ones I sent in for them to choose from!
The poems that got picked are:
How Precious You Are
A Shattered Soul
A Fantasy
AffinityHere's the full issue
Also Word of Chen made a reading that included another one of my poems: A True Friend

And Chen - I'm pretty sure I'm not the friend you are referring to, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends now! :D Thank you for all your INCREDIBLY kind words. I'm honored with a pretty full case of the warm and fuzzies.
For anyone who'd like to go check out the showcase, you can view it here:

I am deeply flattered...
A big thank you goes out to WordOfChen (https://www.deviantart.com/wordofchen) and the #TheWriterGang (https://www.deviantart.com/thewritergang)group for selecting my deviation "Insomnia" for a reading on Youtube... you can find my poem near the end, but be sure to listen to all of the poems read, and check them out as well.. When I began writing nine years ago, it certainly was never with the intention of future publication, or even really to be read. It was an outlet that was needed. I inherited a sadistic muse, that coupled with my romantic soul and my rebellious (and stubborn) spirit, created the works you have seen thus far on this page. With each word that was written/typed, it became a part of me as much as th

It's a group founded by !TheEvilOvelords (https://www.deviantart.com/theevilovelords) and :iconWordOfChen: that collects poetry, provides writing prompts and records readings of submitted poems. All you have to do is to join, upload your works, meet other fellow writers and wait for the reading video.
My poem Dawning appeared here:

TheWriterGang read my poetry! by CIChantea, journal
TheWriterGang read my poetry!
My poem was apparently chosen to be read by TheWriterGang (https://www.deviantart.com/thewritergang), which was really awesome! You should watch the video, there's other great poems in it too!
(My only correction: my username is pronounced see-eye-shantay. I understand why it happened. I chose a crazy-ambiguous-pronunciation username.)
Well, I am not on YT myself, what a clickbait :P
But there is a fresh group here on dA, which has a folder with the name "I want my poem read plz".
How very catchy this name is...anyhow, #TheWriterGang (https://www.deviantart.com/thewritergang) is a great group that was built by the wonderful
:iconTheEvilOvelords: and :iconWordOfChen: , who is also reading the poems on their YT channel.
I think it is rather awesome, that they try to establish poetry on Youtube a little more!
Here is a link to their channel:

You should really check it out and if you like Chens voice just stay around there. You will probably hear some
