Silence is golden.
There’s nothing to worry about,
or at least,
that’s what you might think.
The Illusion of Tranquility
Regret
Shadows of the past,
Ghosts whisper in quietude,
Choices linger on.
Liquid Relief
Cold refreshing drink.
what is needed on this day.
Sipping and cooling.
Effervescence my relief.
On hot Sunday afternoons.

Complex is Love
Love is complex
It can bring happiness.
Or it can bring heartache
never knowing what it will bring
Take a leap and find out
No matter what, you are stronger than you think.
So keep going, even if it’s hard.
One day you’ll look back and smile,
Knowing you tried, and loved, and lived.
Beats to her own Drummer
Atypical girl.
No makeup needed for her.
Is never easy.
You must be true to yourself.
You are unique and special…

Shattered Trust
I once trusted my brother so solemn and true,
But he took from me, and my trust he did eschew.
His sultry lies and sly deceit,
Left my heart heavy, my anger replete.
In shadows cast by his treacherous game,
I feel the sting of betrayal’s sharp flame.
Yet from the ashes of trust that he stole,
I gather my strength and reclaim my soul.

Your challenge for this week
- The letter arrived on a rainy Tuesday, and the only words inside were, “Whatever you do, don’t trust your best friend.”
Horizon
Out over the horizon,
The sun paints the sky with colors surprisin’.
Amidst the Tempest
Rushing storm of thoughts,
Feelings flow like raging winds,
Nature’s fierce embrace.
Underneath the darkened skies,
Calm resides in chaos’ heart.
The Melody of Solitude
A lonely bird flies high and looks around.
Performing a perfect melody,
All stop to hear such a lovely sound,
They were happy, such a remedy.
Its notes danced softly, wild and free,
For now, the bird was not lonely.
Embracing the joy of harmony.
With every note, it soared high and boldly.
Pulsing Moments
My heart beats quickly, racing with each thump.
Emotions swirling in a warm embrace.
I feel alive in this moment’s glow.
Battle Within
I battle with my thoughts on a daily basis,
A whirlwind of whispers in a quiet space.
Shadows of doubt dance in my mind,
Searching for clarity, hoping to find.
Yet in the chaos, a flicker of light,
Guides me through darkness, into the bright.
With each wave of struggle, I stand and I fight,
For peace in my heart—the true inner might.
Echoes in the Rain
Beneath the silent rain, I hide my pain,
Each falling drop a memory I can’t restrain.
The restless wind whispers secrets of the past,
Echoing broken dreams, I thought would never last.

Your challenge for this week
* I wandered into the forest looking for my lost dog and stumbled upon a clearing where people’s forgotten dreams grew like flowers.
Be You
In a world so bright,
You shine like a star,
But deep down I see,
You’re hiding who you are.
Behind a smile,
A story untold,
Yearning for truth,
A heart brave and bold.
So take off the mask,
Let your real self show,
For being yourself,
Is the best way to grow.
