A Writer's Curse

Head full of ideas

Notebooks filled with rough drafts

Lines and lines written and mapped out

Damned hands are too cold to type any of it!

I appreciate you saying that. 💜💜💜

Thank you! 💜💜💜 I had to look up what you said because I'm not familiar with certain haiku terms. I learned new words today 😂😂😂

We got a dusting of snow towards the end of October and that was pretty much it and the week before I had my air conditioner on. Mother nature is bipolar and she needs to take her meds

A haiku

December Summer
Air conditioner on high
Man I hate the South

Pretty!!! If only NC could look like that for more than 2 days

Dear past self

I see you questioning your life
You cried to sleep every night fearing the worst when you left
You lost sleep worrying about the consequences

I wish I could tell you we made it
Tell you what happens next

But I won't

We can't be who we are now if we don't go through it then
#Poetry

I did it
I wanted to give up
I wanted to throw in the towel
I wanted to stop

But I did it

It broke me
It made me cry
It had me frozen in place

But I did it

My back was aching
Rage was building
Guilt was spreading

But I did it

It needed to be done for so long

I did it

That's so pretty!!! It almost looks like smoke

Thank you! I was in my feels over Thanksgiving 💜💜💜

I may not know you
I may not know your story
I may not know the darkness that you have in your heart

But I see you
I feel the same darkness

I can sit in it with you as long as it takes

The fact that you let me sit with you

The fact you're still going
I'm proud of you

Sometimes the void needs a rest too

Exactly: I need to be home.

Aww thank you! 💜💜💜
My hubby was on a long vacation with his family but I didn't go so I missed him terribly

My home

My home is my peace

My home is where I curl up and rest after a stressful day

My home is where I laugh,
Where I cry
My home is where I love

My home is not my house
My home is not my things

My home is you, my love

Welcome home 💜

Thank you! 💜💜💜

Exactly. The world needs makers.

I am a writer

I'm not published
I'm not famous
I don't have notoriety
I'm only known in my small circles

I'm still a writer

I write everything every minute of everyday

I eat sleep and breathe
My stories
My characters
My poems

I am a writer and I will be until the end

I love his eyes. They're like precious aquamarines

Fluffy baby!!!!

Buzzed this weekend
It's been a really long week

I know I need rest

But I want to sit with the Void

We sit and have a long chat

We're not best friends
We're not really close

Just mutuals sharing drinks and playing catch-up

We talk til the morning
Then I finally go to sleep

The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water in the womb

Thank you! I like all of yours too! 💜💜💜

Pass to: Everyone! This is fun!

That's hilarious!

Right?! His name is Smokey and he's the bestest boi. Sometimes I'll give him a can of tuna as a treat.

I love them more whenever I get a visit from my favorite neighbor.

I love when it leads into a bright orange sunrise. Fall sun rises are the absolute best to sit and enjoy a coffee bundled up in a blanket.

Thanks! I just finished watching someone on YouTube play the new Silent Hill game and that's the only thing that I thought of when I looked out the window this morning
