  • Still Standing Tall

    Saturday, March 8, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Still sick yet still standing tall.
    No matter how out of control my life might be
    I won't let myself fall.
    Still in pain yet still laughing through the tears.
    Never backing down throughout the years.
    Still tired yet still strong. 
    Relying on my inner strength to get me along.

  • chapter 1

    Sunday, May 11, 2008

    Chapter 1 
    Waking up in a different room wasn't anything new. I had been drinking way too much once again, now I had to find my way home like normal. My parents would guess that I wouldn’t be home last night. 
    So as I stumble out of the unknown house, I wondered where the hell I was and what had happen last night. I was still a virgin as far as I could tell. I sort of walk, sort...

  • Why does love have to hurt??

    Thursday, September 4, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Why is love so hard to bear,
    When it hurts so much that you care,
    When they hurt you so bad that you wanna die,
    and yet somedays you feel as if you could fly,
    Right up to the sky safe in their arms,
    How easily you succum to their charms,
    Why does something so good have to hurt,
    Sometimes it feels like they're only after whats under your skirt.
    Why does love have to hurt?
    When you're happy everythi...

  • Courage to face tomorrow

    Friday, October 3, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    Courage is admitting that you’re afraid and facing that fear directly.
    It’s being strong enough to ask for help and humble enough to accept it. Courage is standing up for what you believe in without worrying about the opinions of others.
    It’s following your own heart, living your own life,
    and settling for nothing less than the best for yourself.
    Courage is daring to take a f...

  • Let Go by TD Jakes

    Let Go by TD Jakes
    By T. D. Jakes
    There are people who can walk away from you.
    And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
    When people can walk away from you let them walk...

  • I WILL NOT GIVE IN

    Thursday, December 4, 2008

    I WISH I WAS LIKE I WAS BEFORE
    THIS DREADFUL ILLNESS KNOCKED ON MY DOOR
    I WILL FIGHT THROUGH IT I WON'T LET IT WIN
    I WON'T BACK DOWN I WILL NEVER GIVE IN
    I WON'T DROWN IN TEARS OF SORROW
    I WILL LOOK FORWARD TO A BRIGHTER TOMORROW
    I WILL CHERISH THE SUN AND FORGET THE RAIN
    I WILL BE ME ONCE AGAIN
    I WILL FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT
    FOR THIS AIN'T THE END
    I WILL NEVER BACK DOWN
    I WILL NEVER GIVE ...

  • THE OLD LOSE THEIR LANGUAGE

    Tuesday, January 20, 2009

     
    The old lose their language
    In native tongue timing is clean, like water
    Sparkling, clear, simple
    Like before the war.
    Why waste time with English?
    It has no space for memories
    Clipped, efficient, like soldiers
    Marching through the mind.
    When I was young we spoke feelings.
    Beauty, nature, song prayer, a baby's cry
    A girl laughing and a tear
    How it feels when the wind blows
    abd the sun shines.
    There...

  • Why

    Monday, June 1, 2009

    Why
    I need a hand to hold
    To hold me from the ledge
    of all this craziness.
    Why all the rain?
    Why all this pain?
    Why all these tears?
    If you can walk on water
    the put the pieces of
    my heart back together.
    I need sanity, I need Joy
    I need love! Why are
    You hiding from me?
    I know the darkest part
    is right before the dawn
    I know you  have my back.
    This thread I'm holding onto
    will soon break.  So here
    I...

    It was very peaceful there.

    This garden had many lovley flowers, but I found this one especially interesting so I took it's pi...

    Sunday, August 23, 2009

    One of the most enjoyable day trips I love to take is to grab my digital camera
    and go to the zoo.  These pictures I took over this past weekend at the
    Point Defiance Zoo.
    Imagine my surprise when I looked at the photo and saw what I
    snapped. I just love this picture.
    Another great picture that happened by accident. I love the expression
    of the girl looking at this moon jelly fish.
    The Octopus wa...
