Cesarean 

Channel courage to walk the path – a path walked now by you.  A flurry of emotions and jumbled nerves  arriving quick as though on cue.  Icy tables a welcome numbness with curtained professionals and instructions.  Alone, the numbing seizes control  while you try to imagine tugging and suction.  He is brought in as prepContinue reading “Cesarean “

Life

A never ending sky, the delectable blue waters.  Miles of stretching cool sand – This is where my mind wanders.  A world without drought, plenty of food to go around.  A world at complete peace –  This is what my mind desires.  A life with renewed energy, a need to be out in the sun. Continue reading “Life”

Snowflakes 

Whisper my name – A last wish, one of the same.  Our boots are a single pair, one set meant for two to share.  Each tree, stumble, and tear  The very essence of this affair – What we cannot see gives us light; a promise of a new day’s delight.  May you whisper my name,Continue reading “Snowflakes “

Happy February!

My gosh, where has January gone?!  It’s weird to think we are already a month into the new year, a month closer to my son’s first birthday, spring, summer, and getting an agent to publish the first of my Mask Trilogy. It’s strange to think that these years go by far too quickly and weContinue reading “Happy February!”

Entangled we were; two simple threads in a faux fur.  If all we could see was gray then why didn’t we find another way? At best, what once was bliss quickly became a game of hit and miss.  Troubled nights lead into days of fright.  Shadows with our darkest desires plagued us with a needContinue reading

I Will Be

When the world goes dark, and you search blindly with fear – I will be the light that shows you the way.  When the world goes still, and the grief is too much –  I will be the hug that you need the most.  When the world does nothing, and the rage is overwhelming –Continue reading “I Will Be”

Rosie

You came at a time I needed you most – small and perfect, it was hard not to boast.  Velvety brown fur with a patch of white – understanding eyes and always a delight.  My best friend, my sister, my baby –  Nearly thirteen years we’ve been together, with always the hope of more toContinue reading “Rosie”

Worldly Illusion

The world was once so accessible  and now it’s all in disarray.  Offensive, incorrect, and judgemental –  a few tones to the infamous melody.  What happened to respect? What happened to common courtesy? Are we all to be scrutinized for the remaining time we have? Must it all be a trigger to a larger dispute, Continue reading “Worldly Illusion”

Complicated Perfection

Overwhelming machines a worrisome screen –  none of us could’ve foreseen what was to change our routine.  Everything was so clean –  stainless with an eerie glean.  I felt myself growing lean between hospital cuisine  and little caffeine.  All we did was for our little bean, the pump, medicine, and saline.  Though the world seemedContinue reading “Complicated Perfection”

Love’s Curse

We weren’t once so diverse so long as we overlooked our births.  I used to believe I was cursed- unable to find that perfect verse.  Our melody was a rocker’s surge; passionate, powerful, and fierce.  But then things turned for the worse, and now you’re the one alone in a hearse.  © November 2015 byContinue reading “Love’s Curse”
