sailing heart
looking for a lover lost in a sea of heartbreak
Deep waters, emotion soul.
Between salty waves of tears, and the rolling thunder clouds of her soul.
Lost between loved, and loved.
That's where I find her.
If I call her name, through the wind and thunder blast; will she hear me?
If I light the lamps, and hang them high on the mast; will she see the lights?
I do not know, but I will hold the course set before me, long through the night, watching for the lockbox of her heart, floating in the raging sea.

bleeding out
This poem paints a graphic picture of an emotional battle, mine personally. The depictions of self harm are a completely allegorical depiction of how damaging self blame can be, and is in no way meant to romanticize the practice. if you are cutting yourself physically, or emotionally. pleas tell someone, and know that there is a way out of the pain, you can come out of this stronger than ever before.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
