Human Connectionfeatured

You can always read the untold truth from the eyes of a stranger. Where a momentary glance welcomes you into the doorway of their eternal soul. What you may find will astound you. It is here where you witness the way they achingly long to gaze upon the one who holds their heart; as to Read more

Fight, My Warriors, Fight.

Fight, My Warriors, Fight.featured

I have always lived life by my rule book,Noncompliant to your divisive needs,Facing the scrutiny as a scorned mistress. Aching from the leather of your lashes,I knelt down to the heavens and prayed,Cultivating a vigor to rise above the flaming ashes. I would watch it burn a thousand times,To revel in the truth for which Read more

Burning Destruction

Burning Destructionfeatured

Laying here in this moment my mind retraces its steps down a long corridor.Embracing the walls as the metal from a proverbial bullet grazes my heart – I am triggered.My chest pounds while my mind races endlessly; how easy it is to lose all control.Gasping for the air to refill my lungs, I cannot divert Read more

Lessons in Strength

Today I celebrate the occasion. The precious moment when this uphill battle I’ve been fighting allows me to gain a few more steps forward, securing a strong foothold. As if the ground has chosen to cease its forceful steep incline leveling out into a flat plateau. I can finally breathe without gasping for air. Moving Read more

Like two magnets drawn to each othermy heart opened the door to my inner prisonand released me to you. I have never known a gravitation like this – always wanting;the world around pulls my heart into a seductive tailspin.

Mona Lisa, won’t you look my way? Show me the smile that lies behind those beautiful ruby pink lips which linger for a chance at fate. Words falling passionately around you as your aura captivates and lures me in. Your eyes are filled with candor as you glance through the world with rose colored glasses. Read more

Too many nights it suffocated my mind and filled my soul with an endless urge. The desire to run full force and take a leap off the edge of the highest cliff.Just to throw caution to the wind and make sure my senses could feel one last time. The rush of the world soaring all Read more

Memory Lane

Memory Lanefeatured

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

Wild Icarus

Wild Icarusfeatured

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

Balance

Balancefeatured

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

Broken In Pieces

Broken In Piecesfeatured

I wept for days unnumbered, praying not to feel,All the while knowing that this madness was for real.In the darkness I succumbed to the pain within my chest,These chains locked tightly ‘round my wrists had put my hopes to rest. I screamed out from my lungs as tears ran down my face,Beaten by the hands Read more
