The leaves have changed color and the breeze is rather cold. I wonder if I’ll remember a simple day like this, even when I’m old. It’s Wednesday. I’ve never really liked Wednesday’s. It feels as thought the day is sagging from the burdens of the past and the future.

“I’ve always hated Wednesdays" the whisper escapes my mouth.

“How come?” The stranger to my right asks. The bench creaks as...

Breathtaking. It’s breathtaking to see all the wonders of life in a beautiful hue. To feel the warmth of a baby’s smile and the kiss of the sun’s heat all through one’s eyes. The intelligent slant of millions strands of grass, reminding every cell within me of the never ending cycle. To see beyond the sky, beyond the scale, to feel the shine of the stars even in the day. This breathtaking vie...

When opportunity was scarce he was my provider,

In love, in care, in courage altogether,

It was not clear for what reason he left my side

All I know is that it left me feeling dry,

All the pain of yesterday was as clear as mud

Muddling my thoughts, rearranging distraught thought tracks,

Why was I still here, why did I still care?

Why was I going places where my heart was going nowhere?

I could...

Above me sounds plow,

Over and over the snow begins to pile,

Nonexistent to the voices above me,

Losing touch of my own body,

Still the sun’s rays shine on me through the glittering snow,

A wall meant to hide all down below,

Is it worth the risk to break through and face such a treacherous metallic enemy ?

To the enemy I am nonexistent,

For I am nothing but underneath the snow....

A leaf to start but where lies the path to go?

Gone with the wind, engulfed in the flow,

To where does the heart of a young one sway,

Whenever one hopes to be at one’s own age,

Leaves come and go with every seasonal tide,

Wind, rain, snow each season bleeding more into the personality side,

Drowning with no water and breathing with no air,

Climbing invisible mountains and feeling the sun’s emb...

I’m on my way to save all sides of me,

I’m on my way to defeat every broken piece of me,

If only time could pause

If I could take a second to savor my ragged peace forever,

I’m on my way to salvage what is left of you,

Fragments of myself reflect in your every corner,

I’m on my way to face my strongest enemy

in the most raw form of myself,

I am on my way....

The sky was as dark as black coffee. The stars were few that very night. A slight breeze sent chills down my spine. One letter, no envelope, and a million words in front of me. The paper crinkled and wobbled in the dim night.

“You realize once you do this , you can never go back. You understand?” His low voice grumbled in the night.

“I do. That’s exactly why I have to.” Without anoth...

In world full of accomplishments

It’s hard to feel accomplished,

One foot than another

One dream going under,

This thought, this feeling that the world has pushed down,

This dream, this hope, that I’ve denied sound,

It brings life to me,

It encourages me,

It’s the wind beneath my wings,

The flame behind my light,

Before I go,

I wish for no regrets,

Before I go,

I wish to engrave this feeling...

That extra step. I could never take the extra step to become closer. Doesn’t matter if it’s a preschool fight over candy or a financial matter, sacrifice is not for me. I married him because I thought sacrifice was not for him either. I didn’t want to do that, I didn’t want to burden him with the thought of being indebted,no matter the situation. If we both fought for ourselves, then couldn’t...

One glance is all it takes,

One glance takes my breath away,

One smile to make a heart flutter,

One smile to make my eyelashes batter,

All it takes is one glance, one smile, one word,

All it takes is one breath, one moment, one memory to fall in love,

“Anybody can fall in love and be blindly happy,”

Not everyone can take the moment to fall in love with nature,

Not everyone can take the time to...
