    I tell myself stories Constantly I construct entire backstories From little innocuous events Forever confusing My invention with reality Loudly screaming my opinions In my head About all the things Nobody asked

    • I construct stories all the time, too. I relate to this.

    • This reminds me of someone I used to work with. They had a full book worth of different stories in their head. They would go on all work shift telling me these stories.

      Great ink, friend.

    • I do the same when I’m unoccupied. Daydreaming can be constructive as long as you know which sidewalk is real.

    My apathy is not a surrender It’s just the only way I can fight You may tie my hands But you cannot restrain my mind

    Some say sailors Could read signs in the sky And maybe they could But I do not need To read clouds Of my own making

    You Touched My Heart Today

      You touched my heart today And the memory made me smile I wish that you had been here too To share that smile with you   You come in unexpected ways Sometimes soon or in a while And an imprint on my heart is made And  soul...

    • This made me think of my dad. He’s gone but still here in my heart, in smiles & in laughter especially. This is beautiful

    • We all long for a love the heart remembers at random times and whiles, as if it was new 🌼

    • I’m sure it’s a quote from someone but I’m too lazy to google it right now and see but this reminded me of the sentiment, ‘those we love never truly leave us’.

    • This makes me think of the song “I’ll be there”, by The Escape Club.

      “On the edge of a waking dream
      Over Rivers
      Over Streams
      Through Wind and Rain
      I’ll be there
      Across the wide and open sky
      Thousands of miles I’d fly
      To be with you
      I’ll be there”

      • Just gave it a listen. The song wasn’t on my radar when the poem was written but I can understand being able to relate the two. I set words free into the ether and then sit back and watch as each gives their own connections to the words. Some things I’ve really worked over and liked barely received a blip of reaction. Some things have just come to me and I never gave a second thought to, and got raved over by comparision.

        I liked this because it was short and sweet, spoke volumes in a pint size, and rhymed – which is a struggle for me, so I guess the stars aligned. For me it had nothing to do with death at all, but i can understand that too. Once you’ve set something free it takes on a life of its own. And that’s as it should be.

        Thank you stopping to share a comment and the song 🌼

    • Dear AJ,

      Oh, you’re welcome. You know how I enjoy touching your heart especially when candy is involved. 🤭

      I’m always gobsmacked by my own response when I read something that will stop and make me think how I can be better at being more generous. For me, this write had me thinking just that. Have I been generous especially with those I love? I really enjoyed the tenderness of this piece. Lovely write, as per. H🌷

      • Well, now that everyone knows who my muse was, it makes me wonder why you told me to just keep it anonymous!
        But you’re here now, so there’s no point in pining on about you with a silly poem – I’ve missed you!

        Btw…You haven’t seen my Recchiuti Confections Black Box chocolates have you? Just wondering. I can’t seem to find them anywhere? 🌼

        • I said Accurate, not anonymous. 🙄😂

          I know nothing about a delicious chocolate covered caramel in the Recchiuti Confections Black Box hiding behind the coffee tin.😳 🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🥰

    I dream of dragons Do they dream of me Am I in the stories that they tell Before they go to sleep
