Ink
My feelings drip out in the form of ink Staining the page as I reach the brink. Pieces of me trapped between the lines, Essence contained in the sea of whiteMy heart takes control as I write Becoming as one as everything aligns. Drip, drip, drip, slowly the pain escapes Where it was my heartContinue reading “Ink”
Intangible
How do you write about something that you can only feel? A bump in the night or a wound to heal. Barley understood by thought how can it be possible to plot.

“Caged in Comfort”
“Caged in Comfort” if i could speak my truthi’d whisper how i was kept —like a songbird in a velvet cage,fed with sweet wordsand silenced with soft hands. they called it love,but it clipped my wings,taught me to perch,not to fly. i forgot the wind,forgot my voice,forgot what it felt liketo want anything morethan safetyContinue reading ““Caged in Comfort””
