It’s time I spill the beans.
My name is Maggie.
My life’s kind of trashy.
I try to change.
But people see me the same.
I grew up not knowing who I am.
Maybe that’s okay?
No one sees me for who I truly am.
All I can do is try to be who I am.
I just have to fight through the cuts, bruises and scars....
A year
I can’t believe it
A cheer
for this bit
You all are so sweet
It is inspiring
You can’t be beat
It is why I am aspiring
to be the best
that I can be
in this quest
of writing glee
A year and one day
no end in sight
I’m here to stay
especially late at night

(Thank you so much! You all are so kind on my year post! I love you all ♥️)...
You were such
a little guy,
with such a
big strong cry.
I held you close
in just one hand.
Everything else

Throwing on a wheel is a new adventure for me
A meditative process

Throwing myself out there shivering and uneasy
A new feeling
Dealing with insecurity doubt and my stomach feeling queasy
Throwing myself into social situations was always so hard
A nervous time
But I’ve reawakened and I’m dropping my guard
Throwing myself in a brand new world
An exercise in br...
I left a candle burning
Maybe it will burn down to nothing
Or maybe it will light a curtain ablaze
Starting with the living room then creeping it’s way into our bed
Lighting the sheets on fire
Then our skin
Seep into our veins
Warming our blood until it bursts on the floor
Melting the walls, collapsing the roof
Breaking every object we thought was important
Forcing us to start anew...
