The days have been short
As the hours blend together
A depressing time of sorts
Still I hold on by a tether
An interesting little character
Has popped up in my head
I write and sketch to placate her
And ward off days of dread
The time you take to come and see
Means so very much to me
To connect to you in little ways
Helps keep me sane through darker days
And adds extra sparkle to th...

it’s been a while
since i was able
to crack a smile
and turn the tables
but here i am
back again
and sharing my little
hunt for distraction
feeling a little
out of touch
trying to catch up
though there is so much
please don’t be sad
that I’ve not been around
sometimes i work through things
with my head in the ground
i’m almost ready to surface again

Ada has been taking over
filling my mind up
like a lover
She’s so close to being done
and is being pushed forward
by the next one…
Might be a few days until I get her ready to upload to the bubble, but you can check out her progress at my blog
Ada inspires a friend of mine
particularly during her writing time
it seems she has a flair for romance
and loves a bit of 80s dance
she’s full of ...1 Recommendation -

SAVED
by Denise
I was lost in the darkness
so far away
And then the Lord came
and I began to pray
Longing for someone to save me from
the pain I feel deep inside
Your words touched me, my soul exalted,
my body cried
Each night I am blessed with
your infinite power
And the despair I felt heavy in my heart
has lifted and my faith so much brighter
With words, dreams and visions of what will be
I trust that miracle...2 Recommendations

"Burning Within"
the burning pain within flows through my skin and nerves.
A pain I can' withhold.
So out of my control.
I'm lost from the bottom of my soul.
I feel no hope.
Slowly growing weaker and slowly growing old.
no one seems to hold the door.
One after another shutting closed.
Will i ever find a key with the answer i yearn for?
With this condition I feel so al...1 Recommendation1 Comment -
"A Life At Its Closing Stage"
What’s my mentation on a scale 1 to 5?
Successful resuscitation from shock is running out of time
Rapid therapy I can’t find
My pulses are becoming weak
Notice my blood pressure falling below the mean?
Will someone monitor my pulse oximetry!
Bolus some crystalloids and levitate my peripheral perfusion
STAT and RBC bag for my transfusion
Get the l...1 Recommendation -
“Eye to Eye with Myself”
It’s hard to climb out of the hole where I am suffocating
Trying to break free from the crushing ceiling
I feel misplaced breaking down in hurricane feelings
I can’t avoid the colors changing in my eyes when it’s killing
I try to overlook the breeze passing by, it’s only misleading
On this road I continue to drive waiting to reach a halt
