I've loved reading and writing for as long as I can remember. I feel the most content holding a book while laying in the sun. I'm the author of a poetry collection 'Lungs Like Elephants'

A Comfortable Rock Bottom
This wound is red hot and open, My heart sits crumbled and broken, But there is comfort in this home. How can rock bottom somehow still feel safe?

He Built Me a Bomb Shelter
He pushes me all the way to the edge of the bed. Gets as close to me as possible, Wraps his body around mine Like he is a ribbon and I am Christmas.

Thanatophobia in 2021
If you calculate how much sleep I’ve had in each year of my life, I am almost positive that I’ve never had less than I did last year.

Saving Daylight
I fell back to a different world that night. It appeared to be one of black and white. Old fashioned—sure, But I’m speaking more of simplicity.

Harriet and Her Snowman
With one ear up and one ear down and a heart-stamped nose above that cute little frown, Harriet watched from the window as the fresh snow powdered everything in sight.

Pinky Promise
The air smelled like sunset, And our fingernails resembled dirt devils. We’d dug a hole halfway to China as far as we were concerned.

Dragon's Breath
It was the color covering my newborn skin the first time we met. It was the color his face flushed deeper as the bottles drained dry.
