    City Peace

    The wind howls through my window The fire truck siren blares down the street The neighbor’s heated argument is in stereo sound The dogs whine in a pitch that rivals nails on chalk boards Yet I cannot sleep without the city’s peace.

    Roack-a-bye, Baby

    I know no other way
    the weight of his absence presses
    aching…waiting…
    begging for his return
    as nights close in
    shadow draping me in yearning
    the remembrance nearly blistering
    moments of fierce and desperate
    thundering of twin beats
    throb piercing me
    and I cannot…will not…forget
    saturation a constant
    as…Read More

  • She turns 30

    Wake up to a face
    Your face
    The current face
    Not the face you remember

    Memory can distort reality
    Reality is a bucket of ice water
    Even the eyes change
    Once showed hope is now resigned

    Truth is
    It is not the face that is disheartening
    It is the day
    That states you are no longer spring flower but an autumn…Read More

    • hello beautiful Fia I’m glad I no longer get gazes I wrote a poem about that I’m waiting to post it…it’s titled invisible…I don’t feel old even though I’m fifty six and the world wants to tell me I’m old…no she is not old just no longer a teen… great write ❤️

    • This is a great write.
      The reality is we all age. It’s not so bad.
      But realizing that comes with wisdom and learning to embrace the life you’ve lived and where you are mentally.
      I’m happy at 51. You couldn’t pay me to be in my thirties.
      Hell no. Hahaha

    • Powerfully penned, Fia. Excellent write that we can all relate to my friend. I’m happy where I am, don’t wanna go back in time. lol. Nicely done. Appreciate you, Cuz.

      • Thank you Damian. There are lesson I have learned at that age that I do not need to relive it.

    • You have touched upon a very important topic with your beautiful and meaningful poem, dear Fià. Unfortunately, our Western society is obsessed with a cult of youth. In other cultures, by contrast, older people are more likely to be associated with wisdom and life experience. Fortunately, the ‘army’ of women who are not buying into this youth cult based on outward appearances is growing larger and larger. We only age in years, but we mature in terms of our life experience and our wisdom; our faces reflect the beauty of a life well-lived.
      ​Here’s to us older women!

    • My sister casually announces she’s fat from time to time and she’s smaller than me. Throws the brain when someone declares themselves to be in a deficit but they still have more than you. I find it funny that I’m actually more content with my aging than I was in my youth. Guess it’s what we take from the life we live. Good write, Fia

      • What got me is the announcement of I’m old. Not a grey hair, laugh lines nothing. Me being me I said I must be decerped. lol
        She caught on. But damn. Thank you Willow
