It’s not always so easy to forget
I never ever thought there would come a time that I would get over my ex let alone find someone who could be as kind, romantic, playful and gentle. I felt like no one could ever ‘fill his shoes’ the bar had been set pretty high… and it wouldn’t even be fair to anyone to attempt a relationship. The few times I tried I ended things quickly just feeling discouraged. I considered myself lucky to had even had the opportunity to have a love like I had with my ex.
I felt these things and this way because I wasn’t yet fully healed.

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
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!

The Power of the Pink Pen
Pretty and pink as could be
If only they could see
Her
•
As flirtatious
As she was gracious
As worldly
As her hair curly
•
She was fiery
•
Feelings she left in her diary
•
For she would be hung
If she was found speaking of such things
So young
•
Or maybe they would cut out her tongue
And splash it with rum
•
And interject
So she wouldn’t infect
The lack of respect
•
That being more than pretty in pink
Could inject Continue reading

Bodies intertwined
Crossing the lines
Between yours and mine

The Grin
I can feel it creeping in
The little corners of my mouth
Want to turn against me and give in
To an awe inspired grin

Collide
Wild side
Worlds collide
She tried to live by the rules
Implement her Dr. taught tools
Strategies?
Remedies?
But it was a slippery slope
With only words as her rope
Observers filled with hope Continue reading
Chris McMullen: Read Tuesday, Black Friday
I’d like to introduce those of you haven’t heard about Read Tuesday to this spectacular event!
I’d like to thank Jennifer, Writings of a Mrs., for the opportunity to do this guest post. (*my pleasure Chris*)
The problem with Black Friday for book sales:
Every year when Black Friday arrives, customers do plenty of shopping, buying products for themselves and gifts for others. Stores offer enticing discounts, at least on select products, and shoppers stand in lines for hours before the stores even open. Continue reading
