I’m just a ghost figure in the corner watching my life walk by in shadow while I keep breathing. Control is an illusion for the “other ones” on the outside calling the shots. Faith is a bridge I’m building Tomorrow is a dream worth living So I breathe So I call tomorrow a promise Knowing … Continue reading Ghost Writing

On Reminiscing

What NOT to expect when you’re expecting

It's a silly feud, which I take partial responsibility for, though I revel at the length it has come to. I, as an empathetic pacifist, cannot fathom the depths one would take … Continue reading On Neighbors and Whether They are Loveable

Have you ever had a season of life when the ground shakes beneath every step? You hang on for dear life in the waking, and doings, of your day, and wonder if it will ever get better and, "What in the world is happening?". In the seasons when the, "can go wrongs", become the "going … Continue reading Is There Joy in the Waiting?
