this year

my life
has come
to 
a wonderful point
I know where I am 
and I can see what I want
I have a wonderful family
and friends I can rely on 
what else could I ask for?
I have what I need 
but I guess I can always find something new to accomplish 
whether it's learning to mountain bike
or how to love some one
I will put my mind
my heart
my soul 
and my entire  being 
into it
my resolution this year
is to never give up
never let go 
and always be learning and expanding my mind
heart and soul.

  • The Boxes In The Corner

    Looming over your shoulders

    Each stack higher than its former

    Every thought and every scrap

    Of an idea too scared to ponder

     

    Every moment that hurt

    Each minute that lingered longer

  • Inadequacy


    How do I push the words out
    From behind my taffy tongue 
    Thick with salty tears 
    And full of grubby thumb 


    I’m a child 
    Pretending that I’m numb 
    To escape the overwhelming feelings 

  • Paper Frogs

    Why

    When feet fall soft but quick 

    Does the hallway extend

    And the hot breath of whoever’s behind me feel hotter 

    Why do I stay pressed to the wall 

    Like a stubborn gruby sticker
