sad poetry
The cathartic nature of poetry makes it one of the best outlets to channel feelings of sadness, emotional turmoil, grief and despair.
The Two Voices Within
There are two people living inside me, each one pulling me in opposite directions. One is the dreamer—naive, hopeful, always believing in love, in destiny, in the idea that everything happens for a reason. The other is the realist, hardened by disappointment and betrayal, whispering in the back of my mind that love is fleeting, an illusion meant to distract us from the inevitable loneliness. I’ve spent my life caught between these two voices. The dreamer tells me to reach for the stars, to give everything, to open myself completely in the hopes of finding love. And I did. Time and time again, I gave everything I had—my heart, my soul, my trust. But no matter how much I offered, love always slipped through my fingers like sand. I tried to hold onto it, clutching tightly, but the harder I grasped, the faster it disappeared.

My Villainous Hero
The voice, James Earl Jones oh my villainous hero, the force be with you * Thanks for reading! R.I.P. James Earl Jones who died September 9, 2024, at 93 years old. That voice was such an iconic part of my childhood, as it was for many others, as Darth Vader in the Star Wars films and universe, and then as Musafa in The Lion King.

Blue Midnight. Top Story - September 2024.
Blue Midnight hurts; my soul is regurgitating pain from those before me and those with me now in the shadows of darkness. I am silent yet my mind replays the choices, the sickness and the fear of never having a window that will open and allow me to breathe peacefully.
