Life isn't easy, so we create and do things that we enjoy. I love to write, read and get to know people. I hope to use this blog as an introduction to my writing style and my take on the media I read and watch. Feel free to share, comment and critique.

My Place

Wiping the tears

Rubbing backs

Cooking while singing

Binge watching

Loving the way they wake up

Listening to complaints

First time in a month

First time in months

Unanswered texts

Cute pics on SM

Alone

Stories unfold

Without me

Cocoon Cracked

Daily writing prompt
What are you passionate about?

I am curious but get overwhelmed easily. There is so much to read, learn ,and do. I want to learn so much and it has caused me to become passionate about finding a place where I can do it freely and unpaced.

I need to build a community where we understand that time is a construct and we all live forever, even when no one remembers you.

Horrors

She told me not to worry
Like she always did
Now she doesn’t answer my messages
Like those seven years before

She called one late night
As if time didn’t past I ran
Queens to Brooklyn
Leave him I said

High school reunion coming up
Neurotic nights
Too high and burdened with responsibilities
She wanted me to run to her again

I didn’t
She told me about him again
Marriage on the horizon
House sitting on a secluded island

She’s not answering my messages
She’s not answering my texts
A bad feeling sets in my stomach and heart
She’s online so she has to be ok

If he didn’t murder her and leave her phone on
She had already cut me off
Leaving me on read
Like always

Horror stories playing out in my head

Words and Phases

I have begun to realize that words are useless

There isn’t one great reason just many decent ones

People don’t listen so words fall

People don’t speak well so words are misunderstood

People are scared so words aren’t formed

The ability to scare yourself silent

That is the tragedy of being human

 

In the same breath they can bring peace

Hope, salvation, all of the positivity

All coming down to a point of view

All coming down to reading between the lines

Communication isn’t just words

It’s movement and extra sounds

A tragedy that we can’t always trust the five senses

 

Life and feelings are phases of change

One phase not looking like the other

A person’s phases and words never matching

A different stage a different meaning

Everyone’s interpretation silent

Senses and fears

We are human just words and phases

Night Walks

Insomnia

Something I’ve had since young

Winter night walks

Something that unravels my chest

Crisp air that reminds me that I am alive

Blackness and cold that I wrap around myself

Nothing is more beautiful than nature untouched

I alone walking in the weightless dark

It is possible to think of nothing

It is possible to feel like nothing

Both not actually being a bad thing

Surrounded by such grandeur

How do I actually compare?

The Hollow

Pretty lines of music

Tug on them to find more

Down the rabbit hole

Where less is more

Dirty deeds and massacres

The lines turn red

The black parade is coming

Remember that Death is your friend
