Somedays, nothing.

Some days, nothing takes the pain away.
Nothing drives anxiety out the window,
Nothing makes words overheard dissipate.
Words written across my skin, or a scarf around my wrist
Won't keep my fears away.

I want to be buried
under a cold mound of dirt
or in pair of solid arms.
Either one will do.

I want to get a band of ink sewn into my skin that reads:
Willing to stand in the hurricane,
Because on most days
I need to be reminded to stay brave.

I have a scarf, black, with white daisies
Given by the mother of my father to my mother
And on some days, I wrap it 'round my wrist
So I don't forget the pain she endured
And the smile she planted on her face

This is not a poem.

    About Me

     I'm a kaleidoscope of emotion--a mix of soul and heart.

    I don't want to be packaged or concisely defined, to be bundled into the neat packs of emotion and description you find between the pages of a novel or on a theatre screen. 

    I am unique and imperfect. I am full of contradictions. I feel unfinished. I am still learning who I am.
    Picture

    I am human. Sometimes I make mistakes.

    God loves me anyway.
