    • keep trying ..

    • This is kinda where my mind has been lately. I recently took a lower paying, more physically demanding job just to access these very feelings. I just wanted feel what real living is like again. You’ll only get what you give, and many of us have to give a lot more just to get a little, but these are the conditions that shape the poet. Keep trying, and keep in mind that more people see you than you realize! Life is hard fkn work! But I know you know this, because you are a poet!!

    • Thankfully you, we all, have access to let it all out in writing. That is our strongest voice. God knows that creative writing really helped me become who I am. I still have a vocal glitch, that hits me whenever it wants, but it isn’t a handicap. I have learned to be confident regardless. Writing gives us a super power. You will win the battles Fia.
      Awesome write.

    • Powerfully penned, Fia. Another excellent write with many deep layers my friend. This one has a musing vibe while turbulence is stirring beneath the surface. I concur with Mark. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you, Cuz.

    • Thank you for this encouraging writing, dear Fia!
      Settling with what you have already achieved, means standing still. But trying again and again, getting up after falling and trying anew is a brave way of progress and self development. Only doing so you can reach out for the stars!

    Darkness Doesn't Fade

    wisdom can be a funny thing sometimes it's a special delivery... hidden in words spoken quite casually others...it lands with a resounding ring like the day that bell sounded for me   I met her the summer before my liberation she was the reason my abuse...

    • willow… wow… when I heard this its as if I was sitting on that porch listening to the the story… amazing

    • Beautiful. I love this. Powerful. Vivid and sharp.

    • First off, the rhyme scheme is on point. I can tell you really had to pull some crafty words to make the rhyme and tempo stay true. You succeeded. The story within is great, it follows through well and ends with a great mood.
      Awesome Willow.

    • I just listened to the recording! The music matched the tone of your write perfectly.
      Even the voice! I’m all for letting go of dead weight in any write. Nicely done:)

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Another excellent write that exercises demons while telling this tale of survival my friend. The music sets the mood as the voice delivers the truth while speaking your words with precision. Goosebumps on this one. Amazing read/listen as always. Appreciate you, Sis.

    Balancing the Ledger

    I set eight places that evening, though only seven of us were expected. The good plates were on the table, the silver polished, the candles burning low enough to make the room feel older than it was. I had...
