i would describe myself as an ordinary girl from the midwest. those who know me say i'm humble and down to earth. the truth is i'm a mystic and magic happens all around me. my life path has been mostly suffering and truama. but i don't let what's happened to me define me. instead i've learned to see the beauty in the tragic. i've learned to appreciate life from the smallest things to the grandest. i am ordinary but extraordinary lives inside of me. not everyone sees it. and that's okay. i'm just here to share what life has taught me and give you my light if you're in need. god bless!

He Loves Me Not.

i cursed, screamed, and cried.

i cursed, screamed, and cried some more.

silence broke and shattered to a million pieces on the bathroom floor.

he loves me, he loves me not.

my heart broken, tender, sore.

Friction Improves The Work.

harsh words

slight tongue

a closed fist

a bitter nun

a wingless angel

a burnt-out sun

a moonless night

a wife without love

A Loaded Gun.

in secret I wrote

my poetry,

but now with my

husband gone,

i don't have to

write in secret anymore.

my secret life

a loaded gun

my words splatter

and make noise.

my words the power to kill,

but I no power to die.

karate

shadow boxing

writing

screaming

cursing

throwing a football

yoga

cycling

it proves to me

you did love me

if I take it off

approaching:

departure?

arrival?

both?

STOP. LOOK. LISTEN.

the fate you see coming

meet it with courage!
