MY JOURNEY
I was a beautiful flower born unto this earth amongest the posionous plants and weeds.
They taught me some good but mostly about pain, hurt and disappointments.
As I grew my pedals fell off one by one, finding out those you thought were your world
were just as scared and confused as you were.

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...2 Recommendations9 Comments -

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...1 Recommendation8 Comments -

Jessica got up in the usual way, and started her morning routine.
She started her pot of coffee, and headed for the shower.
Once done showering, she put her favorite purple bath robe towel on.
Jessica looked in the mirror.
You see Jessica was very full of herself, but what do you expect from a 21 year old?
She combed the tangles out of her long black hair, and brushed her teeth.
She decided that s...1 Recommendation8 Comments -

C stands for concentrate. The first word in the model prayer is “Father.” Almighty God says that His children are to go to Him and call Him Father. We are to concentrate on Him as God, Father, His nature, His character, His dominion, His omnipresence. That’s the first ingredient.

I had this poem stuck in my head all day long. Actually, it popped in there last night before I fell asleep and went through the weirdness and the horror. It was the only positive thing that was able to distract me and put me back on track when my thoughts would go back to what I went through the night before. So, here it is...I hope you enjoy it.

I wrote three poems last night and thought I'd share them.
Defected
I am defected,
Different,
Incapable
Of ordinary tasks.
I can't cry.
I attended the viewing,
Funeral,
And burial
Of someone I'd grown up with.
I was completely
Devoid
Of tears.
I have flashbacks,
Horrible ones,
With tremendous pain.
My eyes are dry as a desert.
Nightmares
That I wake from,
Screaming,
Don't call up a...1 Recommendation4 Comments -

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
