A Leap of Faith
What do you do with a future uncertain?When passion conflicts with stability?When relatives’ judgement is a heavy burden?And robs you of all tranquility? Do you pursue the stable and all the money?Have insurance to cover your back?Then no one can sit and call you a dummyFor the independence they claim you lack Four cold wallsContinue reading “A Leap of Faith”
When a Dream Fades
With a quiet tear,You watch as all you hold dear,Just sighs and falls away. There’s no words to be said,It’s more than in your headAnd you’ve not even the energy to pray. Pray and wonder why?All you can do now is cryAs impossible comes knocking at your door. Perhaps it’s your fault?This dream’s come toContinue reading “When a Dream Fades”
For the Escape Artists.
Playing a game. Casting magic. Exploring.Or reading a book of adventure, not boring. Watching a movie of a place far away,Or writing out demons to keep them at bay. What magic there is to be flying the clouds.And wishing you never have to come down. Be a swordsman, a ranger, a solider in space.Something elseContinue reading “For the Escape Artists.”

In the Mirror
Take a look in the mirror. What do you do you see? Are you someone you like to be? Do you focus on the outside? Or does the inside matter more? Do you listen to others? Or just talk, talk, and bore? Do you put first your own heart? Or heed the hearts of others?Continue reading “In the Mirror”
Trusty, Old, Page
Every writer hurts. Every writer cries. Many writers don’t know how to speak why. When emotions boil up. The valve is under pressure. You can’t give a word and hold it all together. If you can’t speak and you can’t explain. Just turn to the one thing to help you maintain A calm and maturityContinue reading “Trusty, Old, Page”
Let Me Go
I know when I’m not wanted. I know when I’m in the way. I know when my value is stolen away. Have your fun. Have your win. Let me have a fresh chance to begin. Something new and away from you. Away from the drama that you all brew. My business is my own. NotContinue reading “Let Me Go”

I Hurt
I don’t want to rise I don’t want to work I just want to stay inside Because I’m so tired, I hurt Just a few more minutes Let me steal proper sleep I’m nearing my limitsThen harm will I reap A thankless job So physically exhausting. Like fighting a mob It’s overwhelmingly daunting A hundredContinue reading “I Hurt”
