Heartspoken
Inverse poem
A lonely heart
not
cupid's calling
introspection
minus bows and arrows
absent of flowers and lace
pausing...
tear flow
soaked crimson envelop
over an unsent valentine
disgruntled heart
ignores
high pitched ringing
an inner calling
because angels sing on high
I cover my ears
silencing head pounds
escaping
wing whispered wonders
evoking
lonely travels
without hand holding
unlike couples
tugging at my heartstrings
burden of proof
weight I must carry
ache of my soul
what is this feeling

Embrace Love, Minimize Regrets
Holding onto someone in a relationship can be hard. But if you both think it’s worth it, give it another try. Sometimes, finding the right person is like searching in a big crowd. The difficulties you face often happen because you love each other but are too scared or don’t see a way to make it work.

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
