I sit in silence, my babies sound asleep after a long tiring day. A day made more tiring from sleep deprivation and a migraine. But the most tiring of all, The man in the other room. The man who can’t utter a single sentence that’s new. A record on repeat. A one lane highway. MyContinue reading “What is this feeling?”

Just a daydream
His soft but prominent steel eyes seem to touch my soul. The nicely groomed hair tousled on his head Golden skin shining under the suns hot rays. He gives me a shy yet confident smile, beautiful white teeth against the stubbled hair on his face, it’s cute. He leans in to the car window, strongContinue reading “Just a daydream”
Car thoughts/brief history
I hear the term “shower thoughts” on occasion, but most of my thinking is done when I’m driving my son to and from school. It’s about a 15-20 minute drive (depending on how fast you drive…) and today I thought, How beautiful this is. It’s not sunny, but there is still so much life alongContinue reading “Car thoughts/brief history”
Pre- Mother’s Day discussion
I’m sure somehow this is a controversial topic, and I don’t care! I want to talk a little bit about mothers, good and bad. And since I want to discuss bad mothers too, I have decided to not post this one on Mother’s Day! I feel that would be in poor taste. Let’s just getContinue reading “Pre- Mother’s Day discussion”
Spring showers
A gentle breeze brushes my skin The warmth, caressing my body And I am reminded of joy I am reminded of comfort, peace, and love I used to know what that felt like when we touched But now it just rains, sometimes it pours Things get dark, and heavy, and cold. And then the sunContinue reading “Spring showers”
Big Dreams
Everyone has dreams of what they want in life, and that’s great. Without dreams we feel as though we have no purpose, nothing to strive for, no hope for a better tomorrow. But what happens when you have such “big dreams” and you know they are unobtainable? Not all of my dreams are big. InContinue reading “Big Dreams”
The weight of it all
If my feelings today were tangible, they would fill up the room. There would be no space left to breathe The suffocating feeling would be too much, constricting. If my feelings from today were people, They would be rude, demeaning, and demanding They would be hurtful, They would push and shove, and scream And cry.Continue reading “The weight of it all”
Is past trauma and excuse for bad behavior?
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking here lately on some things in my life. And one thing I keep wondering; Is someone’s past trauma an excuse for their bad behavior? I’m sure you could argue that yes it can be. Maybe from tendencies of PTSD, or depression, anxiety. But I’m going to be honestContinue reading “Is past trauma and excuse for bad behavior?”
The secret of life
Money can’t buy you happiness. Right? Well that’s what everyone always told me. But I disagree. Money absolutely CAN buy happiness. You know what money can’t buy you? The one thing that money will never be able to buy you in life, is love. No amount of money, or gifts, can buy love. It’s aContinue reading “The secret of life”
A poem: a war within
I see myself from above, The only thing I feel is guilt. It feels like my fault, and you shove, I put my feelings aside Again, I feel guilt. I’m angry, Yet I cower So much to say, It could pour out like a shower, Yet I hold it inside, fighting my own self. WhatContinue reading “A poem: a war within”
