Beyond My Reach

You live in a world beyond my reach
Walls you built so high; I cannot see.
I know because I’ve tried with incredible feats.


You have blocked me out with a crystal wall
Struggles rage on, worse every day
I can see each one, but cannot help at all.


You face foes beyond my own
Fighting them relentlessly, but your power falters
If you had let me in, dual strength would have shown.


You do not believe my ardent pleas
They bounce off your fortress and back to my ears
I want to help you. Let me please.


You think I would crumble against what you fight
Demons, rage, and perpetual stress.
I would stand with you with all of my might.


You live in a world beyond my reach
Walls built so high, but I can see
The persona you have taken is your most incredible feat.

She Ponders


She has a mind that is pondering

Wandering

With wonder

Awe and reverence

Wide eyes

That capture the scene

And send the image to her heart

And late at night

She stays awake

And opens her heart

Recalling all the things she hid there

And wishes she could change

All the hurt

With so much desire

Thought and wonder

She ponders

Me

I am a writer. I am the person that does not speak my emotions, but writes them into poems, stories, and essays. Here is where you can glimpse a greater part of me: my heart.


I have a heart that yearns for reckless abandon
A glowing passion
And dangerous love with no hesitation

A part of me hesitates with every decision
I can’t make a motion
Without calculated reason

My third side puts its confidence on
Head high, shoulders back, but I’m not a proud person
I’m just crazily committed to my mission

Revealing truth, that is my mission
A persona isn’t a person
The true me exists in the pages I write on


I'm going to have fun with this blog! I hope you have fun reading it!
