Life’s Shenanigans Life woke up late today, wearing yesterday’s shoes and carrying tomorrow in a bag. My plans ran away.
Feelings and emotions are two different things, Both designed to keep you mentally and physically safe. No one is responsible for your personal emotions and feelings.

Silence where a voice was once heard A seat at the table is now void Emptiness from the lack of spoken words A name that most people now try to avoid

There was a time Where I Now it's all This or that Growing stagnant On the couch And they're there Somewhere Dried out or coagulated In a shoebox in a closet

I Walk In Wales, It’s Not My Land I walk in Wales, it’s not my land, yet something here will hold my hand. The mountains watch, the valleys sigh, while ancient clouds go drifting by.

Tonight, the ghosts came laughing, floating through my room like silver balloons. One danced upon the ceiling, another borrowed my chair,
Last night, something slipped a letter beneath my pillow. I knew it came for me because my name was written in handwriting I no longer remember.
I was human. I had a pulse that kept time with the ordinary things, morning, hunger, someone saying my name. I looked like you.
Mirror Mirror on the Wall... “Hello,” I whisper. The brisk chill in the air bounces off of the glass and meets my skin. I touch my index finger to the mirror.
