Rejection

Humans are all the same, Yet - so very different. Fears bring us to shame... Though we can be brilliant.   Speaking before an eager crowd, Some watch with an open mind. Still; fear of judgment rings so loud Leaving courage hard to find.   Is speaking publicly so petrifying? What can they really do?… Continue reading Rejection

Icy Touch

Icy Touch Broken heart and clenched fists Not a stranger to agony's stinging kiss. Somehow, still not prepared for this - Thirst for vengeance, so hard to dismiss.   Death's icy touch grazes yet again Never relenting… never showing mercy.
