Warrior

The hands on the clock keep ticking, The pain in my heart still there All the more reason to keep kicking Face fear in the eye with a glare   Every moment has led me right here All the times my heart was broken Still haven't caused me to disappear And the words I need…

Flawed Heart

Smiles and laughter realized again Deep in my soul, they still exist Despite the heartbreak and pain I remember what I dismissed.   Wordsmith of stories and poems Decades spent writing them all - Conveying different emotions - One second up high, the next I fall.   Did you happen to notice what was missing?…

Retrospectively Thinking About My Depression

When the new day starts in a few hours where I'm at, 165 days will have passed so far for this year. It seems like we just kicked off the new year and I could tell that it would be different at the start. I didn't know quite how at the time but I felt…

Hidden Strength

I meant to write this ten days ago As a way to mark a year passed Since the day you said I had to go - How this year has gone so fast.   That day came and went - And so did more days Without the memory's torment Part of me is amazed…  …

Without A Trace

Could I have a moment of your time? It won't take long, I promise, The question is fresh on my mind And I'd love it if you would be honest.   The space between the mind and heart Doesn't seem to be that much space - But love can cause all wisdom to depart As…

Abundant Advice

Gazing at the clock and into the mirror, It's difficult not to notice, I'm not the same. My life's experiences upon my face shown clearer, Choices made - good or bad - I accept the blame.   Pain, laughter, tears, and smiles infused on my face - Every line tells a hidden story that is…
