I Heal
It’s been thirteen years,
It was a year that
I realized my fears
A year that I thought
I may drown in my own tears
The memory of it
Remains seared
On my heart
burned so deep
I’m charred
Branded
I felt abandoned
And Scarred Continue reading

While not for the faint of heart this novel is frustratingly real.

It’s just what the doctor prescribed for me this summer.
It’s inspired some grittier writing of my own.

DO SOMETHING!
I have been spending a lot of time doing things worthy of writing about lately, or at least I hope they are worth reading!
One thing I’ve learned about writing and most especially writing poetry, is that you need to take time and some times extended time to immerse yourself in life, love and laughter to continue to be inspired to write!
I am happy to share that I have been feeling the desire to write resurfacing, so here’s hoping for some soon to be new inspired words.
What have you been immersed in lately?
Cheers!
