And how does one tell a story? Beginning with an establishing shot. When the lighting is high And the objects are close up When the shots are many So you go back and cut How does one tell a story?

Just Before Bed
Darkness erupts into the room Behind every shadow Lurks a deep feeling Because it’s cloaked In unknown dreams And you might be haunted Or you might be on cloud 9 Whichever your destiny It is for you to see For you to learn And for you to feel Take away all hesitation Because you’re oneContinue reading “Just Before Bed”
A Saturday Picnic
And the day started with a bold and sudden thought To enjoy this brisk day To have a picnic with my love. To enjoy nice treats and have lunch Stomached with reading Books It was quiet The sound of wind comforted The state of calm enveloped me The state of calm with every turn ofContinue reading “A Saturday Picnic”
The Ex
In the little fires you started in my soul It began to take a toll What I thought was warming this home Only smoked the lungs within And while the seasons began to change, You tarnished this porcelain doll with sin.

Led By Lightning
Don’t know why I’m nervous Don’t know if I deserve this But who said this isn’t right before– the big win or the big fall! Gotta stand tall despite thisGotta break walls and stay fighting And be Led by Lightning. And be Led by Lightning.

And the candle flickers It’s giving off a faint sound in the air And the pages below are thick Wondering why I care And my days feel shorter But I’m not making any green It’s a lot of missed opportunities I wonder if I am being seen.
A New Day
And the world seemed brighter Crystal clear The fears are dissolving And not floating near. Open options But risk is here Must move smartly Or else be struck by tears Can I advocate, Or be my best friend? Able and willing To move forward till the end? Waiting for answers None will come Must ventureContinue reading “A New Day”
Room of Sin
I look up at the moon I see if you’re watching too. One single cloud hangs underneath One single moment where souls meet It’s hazy in this room of sin From the smoke I’m breathing in It is milky white Slightly cold at night Where must I go To follow the flower If you wouldContinue reading “Room of Sin”
