    A Woman Scorned

    Her feet scorchesthe Earth,with every blistering step. Resentment within herselffor all those long nights she wept. Hating herself for losing control of things;In her mind on a loop— “They will pay.All they do is,Lie,steal,fuck,and scheme.” But now...now,she is a walking revelation. Her heart,...

    Girl with The Sad Eyes

    Hey girl.You’re about 21,your life has just begun.And still,your smile doesn’t reach your eyes.Maybe, you’ve gotten wise;or maybe you realizedthat you don’t know where you’re going.you’ve got two kids that you’re toting;Life is hard.You’re in school and working two...

    • You always find yourself when you don’t realize it.
      23 sounded like a good year of life for you!

    • Beautifully penned, PG. Excellent write with a very powerful message. Writing is therapy I agree with you completely. No matter how creative I get with a poem or lyrics there is always a therapeutic quality even as simple as getting something off my chest. Very relatable piece lets me know I’m not alone in the world. Appreciate you.

      • Thank you Damian. I love that we can turn such pain into such beauty with the art of our choice.. there really is something poetic about it, ironically. Lol.

        Thanks for reading my friend. xx

      When the darkness surrounds you and you think of the unthinkable remember this.
      You have to be alive to find peace.Death just brings death.
      Now you take care and keep writing.

      🙏💋🙏

    • This is powerful and the images and words are delicately constructed. Always move forward PG, never look back. Well written.

      • The pain I’ve endured has always been a stark reminder that I’m alive. I’m grateful for that.. always moving forward. Thank you, Vision. xx

    • Great piece. There’s also a hidden but great message in here. Yes, kick your kids out of the nest. But let them know if pressure builds, if the world becomes to much, the door opens both ways and they’re always welcome. So many people commit the acts that they do, endure the abuse that they do because they have no where’s to return to

    • Your muse has the answer of your being, so continue to let the words flow and live as you dream…but don’t any wooden nickels, are flying monkeys.

    Don’t Leave Me by Myself

    My mind is a mess,and usually i’m pretty organized.But today is a day of darkness,no more sunny skies.It’s mostly cloudy, the world’s gone gray.Would it be worse, if I asked you to stay?I don’t want to be in my...

    • I love this because, the dark is my friend when scribbling. The dark is an embryo in the womb of the mind. Keep on, getting on with your writing.

    • Very well expressed. It is a well-felt plea that we all can relate to. Your version is precise and captures the feelings well.
      Now cheer up! 😉

    • Powerfully penned, PG. Excellent write my friend. Your plea is so authentic and real, and your reading expresses the emotional element of the words themselves. We all face self-doubt and our vulnerability escapes through our deepest fears sometimes. Nicely done. Appreciate you.
