BANG!
I need to run and-
Can I be saved now?
A shrill noise
Pounding
A deep breath
My heart is trying to give out on me
Footsteps thunder
My hands scrabble for an edge
I can't stop now
The door
If I can just make it there
Into the burn of light
Day light
Maybe I can see
The sky
I can escape the anger
I know
I can be saved
I'm almost there
Home free.

On Love
April 27th, 2022 Love [1] Love – it encompasses so many aspects of our lives. It has so many different meanings, so many variations of the same thing. There is a version of the word in all languages around the world. In the Greek language, there are 8 separate terms for this one English word and they all mean different things. Philia is the word for a deep friendship, almost even like a term for soulmates. Storge is generally thought of as the love towards one's family — of a parents' love for their child and vice versa. Agape a unconditional love what I gave my first love, a love without condition... Mania is ‘obsessive love’, a type of love that can lead someone to anger or jealousy. There are more, but mania is one that I can only use to describe how my first ‘love’ was.
