It's tough getting back into the swing of things in city life, and I don't adjust to change well.
For the last ten months, my boyfriend and I lived in a very small town. There . . . more

Tears falling
in an ocean of blue ink.
I'm drowning in my head.
Arms flailing,
splashing words on these pages,
but nothing I have said.
Pulled under,
submerged in my confusion.
I'm breathing . . . more

In death's dream, hollow
spiders wove webs of memories-
intricate patterns of life and death
between birth and undefined lives
written across misery's blind, blank eye.
Life is found in divinity . . . more

I sat in the dark
eating stale cereal
from a Tupperware container
with a fork
because every other dish
in the house was dirty.
And I don't even like cereal.

She needed damaged dreams
to be repaired, so crane prayers
lifted metal spirits higher
until the storm slammed
into downtown events
as below, on Thirteenth Avenue,
due to rush hour traffic,

When it comes to many things in life, sometimes even the little things, I tend to have an inability to make decisions. It’s movies like The Butterfly Effect that emphasize the importance that . . . more

**Author's Note**
This story has a different writing style than I would normally use. It was written as a first person narrative with very little dialogue because it is meant to be cut and then performed . . . more

Walk with me on the path of life,
exploring every bend of the road.
Enjoy with me the beauty of life
along its wonderful course.
Find comfort in my open arms
when grief crosses our path,
as I will find . . . more

How many times
do you go to bed crying,
wishing and dreaming
of nothing but dying?
How many times
are you in your head screaming,
as it happens all over again?
How many times
do you pray to . . . more

For some reason,
meanings to things
I once knew
have become forgotten.
I am blank and alone,
standing naked
in front of a mirror,
reflecting ignorance.
The only thing
I recognize
with certainty
are my . . . more

Weeknight reflections require a certain
amount of peaceful quiet.
Stillness and softness and security abide
in a blocked-out hole in time.
I sit and I write; and while I pause,
truth is captured in the . . . more

My doorsteps are an
entrance and exit
to two completely
different worlds.
The cement slabs
are the gateway
separating one
from the other.
I have never sat

Hey everyone!
Well, it's my first year of teaching and I have an extra-stressful situation being split between two schools, driving back and forth each day. It's getting a bit crazy, . . . more

What if I were to say:
I'll never be complete without you;
would you contest or
believe my words to be true?
What if I were to say:
I couldn't survive if we were not together;

I crushed two stars in my hand
and laughed at the massacre of wishes;
I wanted to be high on dreams,
snorting stardust like cocaine and
making a wish every time I hit a line.
They didn’t come . . . more

If I wanted to be vulnerable,
I'd expose myself to you.
But that's not a door that I'm comfortable

throbbing heartbeat
as you blatantly
announce your presence
with passionate vibes
that wash over me
in silent sighs . . . more

it has no path...
nothing to call its history,
nothing to trace its existence to.
