It rudely dragged me forth –
The chaos swirled, consuming all –
And Oblivion, my worth.
We raced through days – no time to rest...

I'm not quintessenceAt the end of the day,
I pour my soul into these words, they say,
These scars, they tell stories of my past,
But they don't define me, they won't last.
It's been a journey, finding joy amidst...

Who am IWho am I,
but a woman with atlas's burdens on her shoulders.
Who am I,
but a little girl trying her best in life's arena.
Who am I,
but a flower waiting to bloom in withering winter.
Who am I,
but...

down belowBuilding up terrible turbulence in my brain
Resurrecting rain in my lonely lane, driving me insane
Going down below, low, low, low
The darkest night has glow, oh, oh
I don’t understand why-why-why
I feel below you…you…you…
I don’t know why,...

Waiting to go, all started to whine
But the mutt at the tree
Couldn’t hold back his pee

Or campfire tales beneath the stars,
Stories unfold, a world untold,
Where hearts take flight and leave their scars.

How it separated from a sky stampede
How the great beast dropped its guard and refused to...

within immagination plus
hello
below are two separate entries
may this day find you well
thank you
"within imagination"
yesterday darkness dawned
winds fiercely swirled
life seemed impossible
today I view bluebirds

reaching unmeasured light
tomorrow I'll follow grace
leaving hopelessness behind
for skies over the rainbow
powers live...

Golden, gliding glances so well-known,
minute, mellow movements, subtly shown.

mundanerising from bed in the morning
seeking shelter when it's storming
idly whiling stray hours away
dreaming there will be better days
fabricating a self-image
with a more prominent linage
doodling on back of a letter
shunning life as a go-getter
paying of...
