One Wintery Day (Few Words at a Time)
Fancy It was a vast voidThe air seemed to escape.Hissing around my ears,spitting in tones of hateful lust.Was perfection so far away?Was it ever close at hand?Stupid questions!

Growing Up
I don’t think it must be so,Oh how the feelings ebb and flow,I don’t think the tides control the seas,And I don’t believe that age controls me. And while I’m young there will always be younger,And as I age there will always be older. But as I love and my passion grows,Is it for her? […]

I Hope You’re Happy
I see you,hoping you see me. When in this dynamic, invincibility seems real,as I eat these meals with not a care in the world,the nutrients spread through my soul, touching my heart.

Expectations
I feel a certain way. A dynamic wave and tide. A feeling I’ve felt before. Oh yeah, once per year, every year. Now, I demand little from most, but the utmost from some. And on this day, equal to Saint Crispin’s Day, I fight a battle indeed. I expect too much from some, and not […]

As I try to push for more and more, I sense fear envelop my being. Afraid of failure, that those who support me will not reap the benefit of their investment, both emotional and financial. I move forward, trembling, shivering, as if a cold chill and breeze were upon me. I turn my head against […]
