Not Really Mine…
as passion spills from my pen…
I show him what I’ve written
ask if I should share…

shakes his head and says…
he would not censure my words
that I own my verseI smile and sigh
knowing the truth deep inside
without him…
these little love notes…
would not even be here -

Then too, often it’s the opposite. The need to be seen, to be acknowledged as a human being. Not as an object or in a negative way, but seen for who you truely are, whole,…Read More

It’s such a dichotomy….needing to be seen but wanting to disappear. At times it’s simultaneous. We are such complicated creatures. Thank you, Curt

Without thought

Sometimes thing happen because it could not be held backBut there is a sometimes
That trust is broken

And it is times like this that you just want to SCREAM!!! Far too many people in our world bear wounds that never heal, ooze pain continually. Insightful poem, Fia. -Curt

Without “high expectations”, without hopes and dreams, there can be no change. But, we must also do the work necessary to make the change(s).
