This weekend most of us have heard about the mass shootings that occurred in Texas & Ohio. In the United States alone, 253 mass shootings have happened this year. Each time it happens more innocent people are added to the list of fatalities, when they otherwise could’ve spent their lives living and surrounded by the Read more
There is a love that resides inside of my soul that is reserved for only you. For the person who has met me halfway in every step of darkness I have traveled, illuminating the night sky as a beacon of hope, so I could come closer towards the light. In those moments, when I ached Read more
When your memory seeps through the cracks in the walls,Purposely trying to infiltrate its presence into my space,While staring at me blankly until I acknowledge it, I am reminded that I knew you once. Not just the quick minded display that you showed to strangers,Or the way you let down your guard with family and Read more
Far away I flew, like Icarus in the wild, desiring to be close to you. Consumed by your warmth, thoughts lingered in my mind of what our future could hold. Each time I came closer to your radiant beauty and glow, the quicker my wings seemed to diminish and burn. The further I flew away Read more
Like the rain, I too have fallen to the ground to nourish the soil, Drifted off to roam the countryside, And dried up to replenish and preserve my strength for the future. I have raged and stormed in anger from the altercations between hot and cold influences. But for every dark and stormy day I’ve Read more
Another drag I take, among a fixated midnight high, The smell of another cigarette sure makes the air feel dry. Makeup smeared upon my skin from a lover’s close embrace, Clothing spread across the floor throughout the hotel you can trace. My cowboy boots & hat are in the corner near the door, A loaded Read more
Wild embers break as the fire crackles through the night, A gift from up above, with the presence of sweet starlight. In every constellation there arises a prominent star, That when you look upon it, you know just where you are. Our tale is part of mythology in one you’ve heard in Greek, An age-old Read more
Carry my soul along the waves and drift me out to the open sea, Help me to recover from the depths of the darkness and let me be free.Separate the heaviness of the world from the truth that’s left untold,Find me when I’m lost and let me see the magic of a story unfold. Let Read more
Holding each other with your hands on my waist.Bodies pressed close together with a smile on our face.Singing love songs in each other’s ear.Loving and learning, emotion so clear. A feeling of compassion, affection, a rush.The desire of wanting makes both of us blush.There’s innocence here, something that’s sweet.Our bodies dancing as one along with Read more
The pantomime entangles me as I’m raptured from the chaos below. Finally I can breathe again. I can fill my lungs with air and feel whole. My body has trouble relaxing, always fighting to loosen the grip around my throat. It’s hell trying to survive the madness of anxiety. The highs and lows of thoughts Read more
The water always moves me when there’s sand between my toes,While the wind it seems to hug me as the sunlight beams and glows.My thoughts they always travel with an airy sort of feel,A water bearer of the world whose light is left to heal. Waves crash against the shoreline gives a playful sort of Read more
The windows open wide and the sunlight pours in,A new days’ begun; are you ready to begin?As beautiful as a painting for all eyes to see,Amongst heaven’s creations here for you and for me. The freedom to roam and explore the world below,A chasm of solitude that blooms as it grows.In a realm full of Read more
