Flies buzz, harassing the house with their lack of personal space Or table manners. Inviting themselves in through the back door that a toddler holds open How rude of them. Many have been trapped Thrown outside Died. But they just keep appearing, driving me crazy as they land on me, my food, my children’s food…Continue reading “Flies…”

The fish
Lightheaded, dizzy, weak. It’s so cold, though the sun blazes. I’ve never felt cold before…this must be the end. Light shimmers off the waters newly formed ripples. Fish! The water feels nice on my body, I need that fish. Mother taught me to swim in silence, slow powerful movements, as not to disturb the waterContinue reading “The fish”
The cradle of peace
The water feels calm A stagnant bliss Floating, feeling the weight wash away I am encompassed by the stillness I am relaxed Cradled by the nothingness that is peace In this moment I feel… Free ~A
New project (little poem at the end)
I’ve always been creative, and I’ve tried SO many different avenues of creativity. From making jewelry with my aunt in a camper at night with head lamps on our camping trips, to drawing and just about everything in between, I’ve dabbled in many a craft, in hopes of finding The One. And I believe IContinue reading “New project (little poem at the end)”
True love
I often sit and wonder if true love is real. I’ve decided it can’t be. It’s a myth, a fairy tale of lies and deceit. I have seen so many romantics, so much love, to had such high hopes and excitement for the day I marry… Only to be shown that true love can’t possiblyContinue reading “True love”

Everything will be ok The warmth will comfort you in times of need The light will guide you when you areContinue reading “Fires burn”
If dreams were real
I’ve heard that dreams can be memories of a past life, If that’s true… I lived in different times. I’ve heard that dreams can be traveling to parallel universes, If that’s true… I’ve caused a lot of havoc. I’ve killed countless others, not for sport mind you. I’ve been hunted by people who wished meContinue reading “If dreams were real”
Where the light shines
Where the rays touch the earth, life grows Where the light reaches dark, warmth emerges Bliss is spread Where water touches earth, nourishment grows Where ripples reach light, a enchanting show When sun and water meet, life flourishes A union with no equal. A love like no other. ~A
The shed
It’s dark, dry and hot. The sun shines through a sliver in the sky, though nothing grows here, there are plenty of others living here. All of them particularly violent and vicious. You have to be that way in order to survive here. This world is rough, but we still hold on. Legend has it,Continue reading “The shed”
Shatter
What might happen if I were to scream? Would anyone hear? If all my pain and frustration, anger, came out Would it be loud enough Or would it be too much force to make any sound? I doubt we will ever know if I can shatter the glass walls around me, Though keeping it inContinue reading “Shatter”
