If I could bottle the

Love…

That sizzles in my

Heart…

I’d measure it on a daily

Basis…

In a liquid form of

Alone in her

Sadness…

In a world full of

Madness…

She has a sluggish

Walk…

Her eyes are red and

Swollen…

From her salty

Tears…

She wears smoky eyeshadow

Under…

Her brow, with

Chapped and ashy

Lips…

She wears a

Frown..

She hears them gossiping

They…

Know she can hear them

She…

Prayed to find peace

In…

This small town

Only…

To realize

she’d been

Let

Prey

Sometimes I feel like a gold-fish swimming among the sharks. I am not going to drown in the water I need to survive.

I would rather be eaten alive, than to drown in my natural habitat.

Open Arms

8 Comments

With outstretched arms

When…

I was feeling blue

You…

Enwrapped my ruptured

Soul…

And warmed me through and

Through…

My words were cruel

With…

Pleas unkind, I took a

Moment…

To ask myself the reason

Why?..

My heart was cold

I…

Made a valiant effort

To…

Keep my emotions

Under…

Control, but once I came

Into…

Your arms everything begin to

Unfold…

An Agonizing Silence

2 Comments

The mind is  in

Overdrive…

Runaway thoughts gaining

Momentum…

On an uncontrolled

Raceway…

All else is timeless

A…

Distorted haze caught

In…

A maze; suspended between

Reality…

The imagination is

Twisted…

It needs to unwind

The…

Agonizing silence

In…

Search of solace

Please…

Don’t let to

Scream

It would shatter

Your…

Dreams…

Comfort-Zone

2 Comments

Today is a cheery

Day…

Spending it alone

Gave…

Me time to tap

Into…

My psychic abilities, I

Took…

An adventurous walk

Into…

The unknown, which

Deemed…

Positive and relaxed

A…

Tone that boosted

My…

Comfort-zone

As a woman on my

Own…

I’ve reached a challenging

Stepping stone…

I am not

Afraid…

I am not

Alone…

I Finally See It

Today I sit reflecting on the events of the past. I am not dwelling in self-pity or asking myself irrelevant questions. Quite the contrary; the vision of my future has been neatly placed before me. My future is guaranteed to be fulfilling, spiritual, and satisfying. I realize that it’s solely my responsibility to nurture myself.

I developed a false sense of desire believing I needed to be in a committed relationship to feel complete. I know that I don’t need to have a man to make me feel complete. Would I like to have one? Yes, of course. I don’t think I will ever get used to living alone, but what’s more frightening is to imagine growing old and dying alone.

I am able to differentiate the wants, from the needs. Everything will fall in place; all I need to do is take care of my mind, body, and soul.

This is the passion in my life goals. I know that I am blessed.

There is a new road ahead this year, and I finally see it.

The flesh is a cover protecting the

Heart…

My soul is the reflective base of my

Being…

By displaying a smile that I won’t let go

Fleeing…

I know that I’m raptured and love my

Wellbeing…

I do and I will

Always…

When I stepped

Outside…

I couldn’t help but

Stare…

My expression is

Fixed…

The grass is

Frozen…

And the trees are

Bare…

My heart is

Empty…

I am an icy

Chunk…

A frigid bit

Of…

The element

Freezing…

In the

Air…

In Darkness It Falls

2 Comments

The loneliness

Seeps…

In darkness it

Falls…

From tears that I

Weep…

It creeps through the

Windows…

And slithers up the

Walls…

It’s usually festering

Deep…

In my

Soul…

It surrounds me in

Blackness…

In darkness it

Falls…
